The William Orr Dingwall Foundation

Paying for College Scholarships

<p>I searched the threads and could not find one for this except one that was not titled by someone asking a question.</p>

<p>This scholarship is known as the Korean Ancestry Grant but you do not have to be of Korean Ancestry is why I didn’t call the post that because some may not check it out
“Do I have to be Korean to apply for the Korean Ancestry Grant?
No. You must be of Asian ancestry. There is a strong preference for applicants of Korean ancestry.”</p>

<p>AWARD: For the 2010-2011 funding cycle, the Foundation awarded $451,496 to 56 scholars. </p>

<p>Did anyone else here apply?
I know very slim chance (my DD applied to everything starting last summer that I found - over 40 and counting… yes, she is determined to go to her dream school!)</p>

<p>Take Care,
Lisa</p>
