Supplemental Questions
  1. In approximately 500 words, clearly describe your educational and career goals and how this scholarship will help you achieve them. Please note spelling, grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and essay structure will be considered. Applicants must submit original work. The overuse of AI tools (such as ChatGPT or similar software) to write or heavily edit your essay is discouraged. Reviewers may recognize AI-generated content, and excessive use could negatively impact your application score. Your responses should always reflect your own voice and experiences.
  2. Are you a Monroe County Resident?
  3. Since preference may be given to someone who is a single parent or physically disabled, is there anything you would you like reviewers of this scholarship application to know about your situation?
