The PKU Action Group has established a scholarship for Washington State high school students with PKU. Scholarship awards range from $50 to $750, depending on the number of qualified applicants.
All seniors with PKU graduating from a Washington State high school in 2008 with good academic standing who have received acceptance to an accredited institution are encouraged to apply. Accredited institutions include: four-year colleges, two-year colleges, community colleges, and vocational or technical colleges. High school seniors who meet these criteria and who send a completed application to the PKU Action Group will be considered. The scholarship money may only be applied to educational expenses, such as tuition, textbooks, room and board, or course related fees.
Applications must be received by July 1, 2008. Scholarship recipients will receive their award by mail in August as soon as proof of enrollment has been received by the PKU Action Group. Proof of enrollment can include a copy of a dorm assignment, class schedule, tuition payment receipt, or other documentation as available.
