pursuing a post-secondary education. Recipients receive a monetary award for academic expenses.
Applicants must be residents of Queens. Interested high school seniors must submit a completed
application with an official high school transcript by 5 p.m. on January 10, 2022. Scholarship recipients will
be notified by February 1, 2022. The online application can be found at:

Each question is carefully considered in the evaluation of each application. Please note: grammar and overall
presentation are considered.
Transcripts must be submitted separately and can be forwarded via email to:
