Springfield College New Scholarship Deadlines

Good Morning from Springfield College!
 

I hope this email finds you well (or at the very least I hope you have been able to enjoy the brighter weather lately).
 
I wanted to reach out to let you know that the Undergraduate Admissions Office at Springfield College is listening closely to the prospective families working with us and also what we're seeing in our applicant pool. As a result, we have decided to extend the deadlines for our full-tuition scholarships to give students even more time to take advantage of our commitment to providing up to 4 full-tuition scholarships to your students this year.
 
The New Scholarship Deadlines are 3/19 and 4/12!
 
Onto this email, I have attached an updated brochure for the Jesse Parks Scholarship with the required essay prompt and the new deadlines. Please feel free to forward this to any interested students or post it on any college access portal. I have also attached a scholarship summary suited for counseling and advising staff to help explain the purpose and vision of the Jesse Parks Scholarship and the William Beckett Scholarship.
 
Please do not hesitate to reach out to me, I am happy to help and answer any questions about either scholarship or Springfield College in general!
 
Warm regards,
Robert.

 Jesse L. Parks Scholarship and the William Beckett Teacher Preparation Scholarship.

Dear Seniors!
 
Please see below and be sure to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity!
 
Greetings from Springfield College. While I’ve met and worked with a great number of you, let me begin by introducing myself for those who I have not yet worked with directly. My name is Robert Gordon and I serve as the Senior Assistant Director of Undergraduate Admissions as well as the Coordinator of Multicultural Recruitment at Springfield College. I work with all of the first-year students applying to Springfield College from the city of Springfield. I’m writing today to provide an update on our two full-tuition scholarship opportunities for students across Springfield.
 
Springfield College will continue to honor our commitment and partnership with the city through our two full-tuition scholarships, the Jesse L. Parks Scholarship and the William Beckett Teacher Preparation Scholarship. In addition, we are excited to share that we will be expanding these opportunities to, hopefully, expand access to Springfield students in this difficult time due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Springfield College is committed to providing a combined total of up to 4 full-tuition scholarships between Jesse Parks and William Beckett recipients.
 
To accommodate students and help meet them where they are in the college search process, we have decided to set two scholarship application deadlines - one for students who have already started or submitted their application to Springfield College and another deadline for students who are still navigating the earlier parts of the college search process. For any counselors unfamiliar with our scholarships, I have attached a description of the scholarships and the criteria for eligibility to this email. The first deadline is 2/12/2021 and the second is 3/19/2021. 
 
I’m very excited to work with you and your students this spring. I am happy to answer any questions that you may have about the scholarships, Springfield College, or what we can offer your students in terms of support. Please feel free to reach out via email or phone (my direct contact number is 413-748-3526). Please also feel free to pass this along to all school counselors, teachers, or GEAR UP advisors who work with students on the college search process.
 
Thank you for your time in reading this and for the work you do with and for your students.
 
Warm Regards,
Robert.

Boston University Summer Term

​Greetings!
It may be cold outside in Boston, but it’s not too early to start planning for summer. Please let your students know that application forms are now live for the 2021 Summer Term High School Programs at Boston University, via our website.
Next summer, we are offering five pre-college programs for your students to choose from. All five provide rigorous and collaborative college life experiences that will enable students to gain a strong sense of their personal and academic potential.
At present, we are planning for a safe and rewarding summer by giving students the option to attend any of our programs remotely or in person by commuting to campus. Residential options will be assessed in early 2021. Here is a brief overview of our programs:
  • High School Honors is a six-week program in which students take Boston University undergraduate courses and earn up to 8 transferable college credits. In addition to remote or commuter options, we also offer online courses through High School Honors Online. Students must be entering their junior or senior year of high school in fall 2021.
  • RISE Internship/Practicum is a six-week, non-credit program in which students conduct scientific research in a university lab under the guidance of a faculty mentor. Students must be entering their senior year of high school in fall 2021.
  • Academic Immersion (AIM) is a three-week, non-credit program for students to focus intensively on a single academic topic. This summer we are offering four AIM tracks: Introduction to Experimental Psychology; Introduction to Medicine; Global Studies: Security, Statecraft, and Spycraft; and Creative Writing. Each track combines classroom work in the subject area with project-based learning activities. Students must be entering their junior or senior year of high school in fall 2021.
  • Summer Challenge is a two-week program in which students take two non-credit seminars of their choice and experience college life. Students must be entering their sophomore, junior, or senior year of high school in fall 2021.
  • Summer Preview is a one-week, non-credit program in which students explore one subject of interest while previewing the college experience. Students must be entering eighth grade or their freshman or sophomore year of high school in fall 2021.
I hope you will share our website with your students and encourage them to apply. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at summerhs@bu.edu. We look forward to seeing your students at BU next summer!
Sincerely,
Amanda Kautzman, PhD
Associate Director
Boston University Summer Term
