Charlton Loan and
Scholarship Program
(CLASP)
The Charlton
School endows a Scholarship program designed to further the higher
educational goals of our students. The Charlton Loan and Scholarship
Program - "CLASP", provides scholarships and interest-free loans to former
students who demonstrate a desire and ability to pursue a post-secondary
education. All girls who successfully complete the Charlton Program are
eligible for this assistance.
-
PURPOSE
The
C.L.A.S.P. program is designed to facilitate and encourage students to strive
for self-improvement during their placement at the Charlton School and after
discharge by providing financial aid, in the form of grants, scholarships and
no-interest loans, to students who demonstrate a motivation and an ability to
seriously pursue a post-secondary education.
Post-secondary education is seen as any academic or vocational training,
after high school graduation, which leads to a degree, a certificate or a trade that the
student can use to further her professional career and to become a productive
citizen and successful adult. The institution that the student
chooses must be eligible for Federal financial assistance.
ELIGIBILITY
A
student who is successfully involved in or has successfully completed the
Charlton School program is eligible to apply for financial assistance through
C.L.A.S.P. She also must have applied to and been accepted by a post-secondary
program of study or be currently enrolled and provide a transcript of her most
recent grades.
APPLICATION
A
student should apply for support from C.L.A.S.P. through the Executive Director
of the Charlton School. The Executive Director will evaluate the application
and send it with his/her recommendation to a member of the Executive Committee.
That member will present the application at the next Executive Committee
meeting. That presentation will include significant history and a summary of
current grades, course of study, and personal information included in the
application form or letter accompanying the application. A student must apply
for aid each new term.
The disposition of the request including the type
and the amount of the financial support is the sole responsibility of the
Executive Committee who will take individual circumstances and other available
financial resources of the student into consideration in their decision.
The Committee will also review and revise the application form annually.
FUNDING
Funding for the program will come from available funds in the
C.L.A.S.P. Fund.
Individuals and corporation gifts may be specifically designated to support this
important academic program.
