The BBB is proud to offer an annual scholarship program
recognizing Students of Integrity. These scholarships are designed
to recognize and promote ethics and integrity among young people.
The BBB will award scholarships to graduating high school seniors
who personify all of the best aspects of high character in their
personal choices and actions. Scholarship money is awarded directly
toward winners' post-secondary education expenses (tuition or
room/board only) at any accredited institution.
Students are asked to read and consider the 20 principles found
on the document entitled UncommonSense and select one or more of
the principles and write an essay that gives a specific, personal
example of how s/he was challenged or struggled through a difficult
situation and how s/he overcame the situation by the application of
high character and personal ethics. The essay must be 1,000 words
or less. The essay must be accompanied by the scholarship entry
form, one letter of recommendation, a copy of high school
transcripts, a list of extracurricular activities and
post-secondary plans.
Entries will be reviewed by an independent panel of judges and
judging will be based mainly on the content of the essay, although
academic transcripts, one reference letter and outside activities
may also be used by the judges in making their final decisions.
Applications and essays for the 2013 scholarship will be
accepted only from Minnesota and North Dakota high school students
who will be seniors in the 2013-2014 school
year .
Written entries will not be due until late September
2013. More details to follow.
