Greetings,
I hope this message finds you well. I am Dr. Trisha Mackey and I have the honor of serving as the Inaugural Director of the NC State College of Education’s Transformational Scholarships Program. The Transformational Scholarships Program provides scholarships totaling $40,000 over four years to promising high school students from Eastern North Carolina who will return to the region to teach after graduating from NC State College of Education. The program was made possible due to a generous charitable grant from the Anonymous Trust.
The inaugural class of Transformational Scholars represents 10 different eastern North Carolina counties and comprises eight elementary education majors, five mathematics education majors, two science education majors, and one middle grades language arts and social studies major.
It is now time to begin recruiting the next cohort of Transformational Scholars. As an NC State Extention Employee connected to our target communities, we would like to extend an invitation for you to assist us in nominating new students. Transformational Scholars are selected based on the following criteria:
their admittance to NC State as first-year students their demonstrated financial need (as determined by the FAFSA) a resident of an Eastern North Carolina county their commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion their commitment to the teaching profession
Please complete this form to nominate a student for an invitation to apply to the NC State College of Education's Transformational Scholarships Program. Students must complete the NC State General Application by November 1st to receive an invitation to apply to the program. Additionally, please share this message with your networks and encourage others to nominate future scholars.
If you have any questions about the Transformational Scholarships Program or the nomination process, please email us at transformationalscholars@ncsu.edu.
