Oklahoma Restaurant AssociationEducation Committee Scholarship Selection

Criteria

The scholarship committee voted to use the OSU Hospitality & Human EnvironmentalSciences Scholarship application as the first step in the selection process. Thisapplication is used by both OSU Stillwater and Okmulgee campuses . It would eliminatethe need of a separate ORA scholarship application.

The OSU scholarship committees or its chairman selects the candidates to be presented tothe ORA. They use the following criteria:

1. A written narrative reasons for choosing area of study, goals, why they shouldbe considered for the scholarship

2. Types of awards or scholarships they have received.3. The types of student activities and organizations they belong to.4. A list of all of their work experience or volunteer services.5. If they have other circumstances or considerations they would like to present.6. Provide financial information to show need.7. A list of references.

The students must submit these applications along with overall grade points to beconsidered and are rated on a 0 - 4 scale with 4 being the highest. Once this criteria ismet, they are then submitted to the ORA for interviewing. The ORA ScholarshipCommittee uses this information and criteria as part of the selection process to awardscholarships.
