iModules is proud to be able to give back to our clients and the communities they serve by helping students with their academic pursuits. Now in its eighth year, the iModules Scholarship Program annually provides individual financial scholarships to students enrolled in secondary or higher education institutions that are current iModules clients (UT Austin is!).
This year, we are awarding even more scholarships. 15 scholarships will be awarded in the amount of $1,500 for the 2015-2016 school year.
Students must meet the minimum qualification to be eligible for a scholarship:
- Full-time student for the Fall 2015 semester
- Attending or will be attending a school that is an iModules client for Fall 2015
- A minimum “C” grade point average
The initial account creation process takes very little time. After the initial account creation, students will be asked to 1.) submit an application, and then 2.) submit an essay. The essay is based on two questions, and we ask that they answer the questions in less than 250 words each. Visit scholarships.imodules.com. to read the essay questions and learn more about the program.
The deadline for application and essay submissions is midnight (12:00 AM) Central time on April 1, 2015. (Convert the deadline to your time zone.) Scholarship recipients will be announced by May 1, 2015.
