Bloomington High School North

Scholarships

The following document is a list of scholarships that we receive in the Bloomington High School North Guidance Office. It is by no means a complete list of scholarships available. All of the following scholarships can be obtained from Kathy Rillo in the Guidance Office, however, I have also provided a contact name in case you want to obtain the application yourself. The scholarships are ordered by due date and I have included some awards (not linked to money) as well. The scholarships listed below are generally available to senior level students. If the scholarship is open to other grade levels, it will be indicated under the "Criteria" category. Please feel free to contact Mrs. Rillo, 330-7724 ext. 3329, if you have any questions regarding scholarship information.
