Jack Kent Cooke Scholarship

<p>Anybody applying for the Jack Kent Cooke? Any other prestigious 2yr to 4yr scholarships?? What FAFSA EFC would be competitive?? how poor do you need to be to get one of these scholarships??</p>

<p>All I know is that this scholarship is very competitive, so you better work very hard on that application</p>

<p>which scholarship are you talking about?</p>

<p>I'm applying to the JKC transfer scholarship</p>

<p>You don't need to be poor, you just need to show financial aid... they'll award the scholarship based upon the determined need.</p>

<p>I believe it's fairly competitive.</p>

<p>My EFC is 8,000 and the schools im applying to are roughly 30-40K out of state. Is your EFC similar??? It seems like the winners of previous years have basically been neglected orphans who imigrated here and taught them selves 5 languages while raising 3 kids...if ya know what I mean. Tough.</p>

<p>It is very competitive. But you should apply and see. They emphasize leadership, and some bent on art or music or sport in addition to grades. Good luck :)</p>

<p>My EFC is 0.</p>

<p>I make below poverty level and have a family I support (I'm 27 and we live on our own)</p>

<p>It doesn't mean I will get it.. chances are I won't.</p>

<p>*******bump</p>

<p>I would apply but the administrators at my school don't like me so they wouldn't nominate me. =P oh well.</p>

<p>This is sort of random, but wasn't he the owner of the Redskins (they're my favorite team)?</p>
