The selected students also will be able to enroll for their fall semester classes early.

One letter must be from a high school teacher, high school principal, high school counselor or other faculty member, or a member of administration. The second letter should be from another person such as a minister, family friend or employer. Letters of recommendation should include the person’s name, position and relationship to the applicant.

All applicants must submit a scholarship application along with the PLC application or have one on file in the Northwestern Financial Aid and Scholarship Office prior to the PLC application deadline.
