DEADLINES NEAR IN SCHOLARSHIP COMPETITIONS
IN GRAPHIC DESIGN AND CULINARY ARTS
FOR HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS
For high school seniors looking to enter the growing fields of graphic design and the culinary arts, it takes more than just focus, hard work and dedication to make things happen.
It takes financial resources that aren't always within reach for many families. And that's why The Art Institutes system of 32 colleges including The Art Institute of Charlotte offers tuition scholarship competition opportunities for high school seniors in several program areas.
The deadline for both of those scholarship competitions, Best Teen Chef and Poster Design, is 5:00 p.m. Friday, February 9.
In the Best Teen Chef Competition, aspiring chefs compete against their peers across North America who hope some day to be professional chefs, caterers, or culinary arts instructors. The Art Institutes offer three full-tuition scholarships worth approximately $35,000 to study at any one of 23 Art Institute locations with culinary arts. This competition offers more than $200,000 in total tuition scholarships to The Art Institutes.
For students interested in the arts and graphic design, the Poster Design Competition will offer high school seniors a $25,000 tuition scholarship to study graphic design at The Art Institutes. The competition is co-sponsored by Americans for the Arts, the nation's leading nonprofit organization for advancing the arts in America. Student competitors create poster designs that reflect the theme "Life is Better with Art in it." More than $100,000 in tuition scholarships to The Art Institutes is awarded to participating students.
