Hello, I hope that you had a wonderful holiday break and safely enjoyed the winter weather. This is a reminder that the deadline for the Kaiser Permanente Health Care Career Scholarship application is next week (January 13). Key details are below. APPLICATION DEADLINE: Wednesday, January 13, 2016, 5 p.m. PST TEACHER/COUNSELOR NOMINATION DEADLINE: Monday, January 11, 2016, 5 p.m. PST APPLICATION: Applicants can click here for the application website or visit the following page: kp.org/communitybenefit/scholarship/nw MORE ABOUT THE NOMINATION PROCESS: Applicants must find a teacher or counselor to nominate them and enter the teacher or counselor’s email address into the online application. The nominator will then receive an email with instructions for confidentially submitting the nomination online. Nominators answer a series of questions and enter comments about the applicant. Applicants must start their application in order to initiate the nomination process but they are not permitted to actually submit their completed application until the nominator has submitted the nomination. Thus, teacher/counselor nominations are due by January 11, 2016 (allowing enough time for students to then submit their applications by the Jan. 13 deadline). Click here for more details about the nomination process. INTERVIEWS: Applicants will be contacted via email if they are invited to interview. We will interview only those applicants being considered for the full spectrum of award amounts ($2,000, $5,000, and $10,000). Interviews will be conducted from late February through mid-April. Students invited to interview are not guaranteed a scholarship in any amount. Students not invited to interview may still be under consideration for a $2,000 scholarship. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks for your help in spreading the word about the Kaiser Permanente scholarship program. Best, Melissa Leonard Program Manager Kaiser Permanente 503-813-4478 Melissa.Leonard@kp.org
