Scholarship Application Reviewers Needed

Each year the College of Education and Human Ecology has hundreds of students apply for EHE Scholarships. As such, each student completes several essays which are reviewed by individuals from around the College. This year we invite you to be part of the process as an undergraduate student scholarship essay reviewer. As a member of our college I hope you will consider this opportunity as you would be doing the College a great service and this is a great way to give back to students who are a key part of our purpose. 

If you would like to participate in the undergraduate awarding process as an undergraduate student essay reviewer please complete the following application by February 10, 2017 http://go.osu.edu/ehereviewer

If you participate we expect to send out the applications for review by February 17, 2017 and would like them back by March 10, 2017

Any questions or concerns please contact me at piazza.18@osu.edu.
