Please submit all nominee forms by May 31, 2024.
All Nomination Forms will be reviewed by the EAA Chapter 932 Scholarship Committee.
The scholarship committee will evaluate each nominee. After reviewing all nomination forms, the scholarship coordinator will schedule an interview with the nominee (and the nominee’s parents, mentor, and/or CFI, if applicable) and the scholarship committee.
Qualified nominee interviews will be scheduled for June 18th or June 19th, 2024
Once all nominees have been interviewed, the scholarship committee will choose the scholarship candidate based on a rubric-based point system. The nominee with the highest score who has also met interview criteria set by the committee will be the scholarship candidate.
The candidate will be notified by phone. If the potential scholar accepts and agrees to the Ray Scholarship expectations as outlined by the EAA, the scholarship coordinator will assist the candidate in the submission of the formal application to EAA National and provide ongoing support.
If approved by EAA National, an award presentation will occur during an EAA 932 monthly gathering.
Nominees not selected in a given year will be considered the following year, as long as eligibility requirements are still met.
