Application brochures are available for the 12th annual Herbert Hoover Uncommon Student Award, a scholarship program for Iowa high school juniors that does not evaluate against grades, test scores or essays.
Applicants propose a project they want to accomplish then approximately 15 juniors are chosen in April to complete their projects. In the fall of their senior year they present their projects at the Hoover Presidential Library-Museum in West Branch, near Iowa City. Each student receives a $1,000 stipend and three are chosen to win $5,000 scholarships for a two or four year school anywhere in the nation.
For more information, visit www.hooverassociation.org, or contact Patricia Hand at 800-828-0475. The deadline is March 31, 2009.
