If you need additional guidance, the key to success is attending SBVC Scholarship Workshops!
The scholarship students that have the best results are those who utilize all of the support services that the campus has to offer, especially the scholarship workshops. Workshops are scheduled throughout the year and are usually 1-2 hours in length. They focus on specific aspects of the scholarship application process including:
-
How to Write a Great Essay or Personal Statement
-
How to Obtain Great Letters of Recommendation
-
Getting Started with the Inside Scholarship Application
-
Internships, Fellowships and other Aid for Grads and Transfer Students
-
Scholarships for High School and New College Students
