TWENTY-FIVE STUDENTS WIN MATC TECHNICAL
EXCELLENCE SCHOLARSHIPS
Twenty-five 2006 high school graduates have been
selected to receive 2006 Technical Excellence Scholarships to attend
Madison Area Technical College this fall. The Technical Excellence
Scholarship is a scholarship for entering first-year students at
MATC who have completed a high school diploma, GED, or HSED in
good academic standing.
Recipients receive $500 per semester for
one academic year for a total of $1,000. Awards are based on academic
achievement and
a completed application that includes a short essay and a recommendation
letter.
"The Technical Excellence Scholarships give
students a real incentive to enroll in MATC programs that offer
solid earning potential and excellent job
placement rates," says Lynn Perkins, MATC director of prospective student
relations.
