Applications will be accepted until April 17, 2009, from any student planning to study either in a college or technical school. Interviews will be scheduled in the month of April. Each final applicant will be required to take part in a 10-20 minute interview conducted by the Women’s Council Scholarship Committee of the Home Builders Association.
