IF THE CHILD YOU ARE APPLYING FOR IS NOT LISTED ON YOUR TAX RETURN, THEN WE ALSO NEED THE TAX RETURN THAT LISTS THE CHILD YOU ARE REQUESTING A SCHOLARSHIP FOR.

3. A LETTER FROM THE PARENT STATING WHY THEY WANT THEIR CHILD(REN) TO ATTEND FLCT.

4. IF THE CHILD IS 8 YEARS OR OLDER, THEY MUST WRITE A LETTER STATING WHY THEY WANT TO ATTEND FLCT. PLEASE ENSURE THIS IS HANDWRITTEN BY THE CHILD OR IS SENT FROM THEIR E-MAIL ADDRESS.

All family financial information will be kept confidential and is for scholarship award and reporting use only. Please fill out all information of this form and return it to the business office.
