New York City Chapter Student Scholarship

Dear Prospective Hokie:

We attended Virginia Tech for a variety of reasons. Whether your interests lie in science or engineering, teaching or writing, Virginia Tech offers something for everyone. Very rarely can someone look back on a previous decision and not ask the question "What if?" One question I've never had to ask myself is, "What if I didn't go to Virginia Tech? What if I went to University X?" The education and life experiences I received in Blacksburg and abroad have shaped my life in countless ways. For that, I could not imagine spending my formative adult years anywhere except Virginia Tech.

As the Scholarship Chair of the New York City Alumni Chapter, I would like to inform you about the scholarship our chapter plans to award to a worthy high school senior in the New York City area who will attend Virginia Tech in the fall of 2024.

Please complete the application and submit it to the scholarship committee by Jan. 1.

The criteria for selecting the scholarship award winner will be based on extracurricular involvement, including participation and leadership in school activities, community support, and employment. We plan to announce our selection by Feb. 15.

Thank you for your interest in Virginia Tech.  I hope to welcome you as a member of the Class of 2028.

Sincerely,
