PAGE Future Educator Scholarships

Scholarship Sponsored by Professional Association of Georgia Educators

Introduction PAGE Foundation scholarships are one-time, non-renewable awards issued directly to the recipient’s college or university. Award amounts vary by individual scholarship—refer to each scholarship listing for specific values. Please review the important note found on page two (2) of this application.

Eligibility All applicants must satisfy the following baseline requirements, in addition to any criteria specific to individual scholarships listed online:

• Be a current PAGE member.
• Maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0.
• Commit to teaching in Georgia for three (3) years.
• Provide two recommendation letters.
• Submit your most recent cumulative transcript.
• Fulfill any extra conditions that apply to particular scholarships.

Note: Your college or university may be located in Georgia, outside Georgia, or be an accredited online institution.

Required Application Materials Submit the completed application along with:

• Two essays,
• Two recommendation letters,
• Your most recent cumulative transcript (an unofficial copy is acceptable).

Please do not staple any part of your application.

Important application rules

• Signatures: You must sign the application. Unsigned applications are considered incomplete and will not be scored.
• Competitiveness: This is a competitive program. Awards are one-time payments made to the winner’s institution and are not renewable.

Transcript guidance Please submit your most recent cumulative transcript. Specific cases:

• Undergraduate students: provide your most recent cumulative transcript.
• Graduate students who have completed at least one semester in the current program: submit the current program transcript.
• Graduate students just starting a new program: submit the cumulative transcript from your previous program of study.

When to request your transcript Request your transcript early to allow time for your registrar or transcript service to process and send it. If your transcript arrives after the deadline, your entire application will be considered late and will not be scored.

How to send your transcript You may submit transcripts in one of three ways:

1. Include the transcript with your mailed application (recommended).
2. Have your college registrar or transcript service email the transcript to the PAGE Foundation Scholarship Coordinator at scholarships@pageinc.org.
3. If necessary, have your institution mail the transcript to: Michelle Crawford PAGE Foundation Scholarship Program PO Box 937 Young Harris, GA 30582

Deadlines and delivery All parts of your application—including transcripts—must be received by the published application deadline. Transcripts delivered separately by mail or email must arrive by the deadline; late transcripts will cause the application to be incomplete and ineligible for scoring. The PAGE Foundation is not responsible for lost mail, email delivery failures, or delays caused by your college registrar or transcript service. For this reason, we recommend including your transcript with the rest of your application whenever possible.

Questions / Final reminders

• Complete applications (including essays, recommendations, transcript, and signatures) must be received in the PAGE Scholarship Office by the deadline. Late or incomplete applications will not be reviewed.
• Again, please do not staple any portion of your submission.
• See the important note on page two (2) of this application for additional information.
