CAUTION: This email is from an EXTERNAL contact. Please do not open attachments, or click on links from unknown or suspicious senders.

 

I wanted to provide one final reminder about the 2022 Vision Forward scholarship.  Application are due April 29th.

 

Please note that we have made a few changes to make the application process easier and more accessible:

  • The Eye Report may now be completed by a TVI or O and M specialist (does not have to be an optometrist or ophthalmologist)
  • Official transcripts are no longer required
  • The application form is simplified and in an easily fillable, accessible pdf. 

 

Please encourage your eligible students to apply and please share this information widely. 

 

Thanks,

Jacci

Vision Forward Scholarship Opportunities

Vision Forward offers two scholarships to benefit students who are blind or visually impaired in Wisconsin: 1) The Vision Forward Association Scholarship established by Vision Forward; and 2) The Arthur L. Ebert Endowed Scholarship established by Mr. Ebert’s family to honor the late attorney and his commitment to the Milwaukee community. Both scholarships provide funding to students with visual impairment who are pursuing higher education.

 

All applications are reviewed by the Scholarship Committee who take into consideration the following information during their review: personal and family financial need, academic achievement, career goal, extracurricular activities and character. 

 

The application deadline for the Vision Forward Association Scholarship and the Arthur L. Ebert Scholarship for the 2022-2023 academic year is April 29, 2022.
