This year seniors from Prince William County, Manassas and Manassas Park public and private accredited secondary schools will have an opportunity to compete for six scholarships from the Prince William County - Greater Manassas Chamber of Commerce.  Scholarships can be used for educational programs of study leading to a degree or professional certificate beginning during academic year 2003- 2004.

The Prince William County - Greater Manassas Chamber of Commerce scholarship requires at least a 2.00 grade point average.  We seek to support those students who traditionally are not selected to receive scholarships due to less competitive grade point averages.  The recipients of these scholarships have developed a plan to continue their education or training and have contributed to our community through volunteer services.

1. Each school is responsible for evaluating the submissions, nominating one student and forwarding the nominee's application to the Prince William County - Greater Manassas Chamber of Commerce, 8963 Center Street, Manassas, Virginia, by 12 noon on Friday, March 10, 2003.  Applications will also be accepted by fax, at 703-368-4733.  Applications must be submitted on the application form or retyped on the computer in the same format.  No attachments will be accepted. 
2. Formal notification of the winners will be made to both the student and school by April 26th, and followed up with a press release.  Formal presentation of each of the scholarships will be made in coordination with the recipient and their respective school's annual recognition event to include their peers and family.
