f> .  Postsecondary students of all ages who are blind or visually impaired
are welcome to apply for Lighthouse scholarships, including those pursuing
two-year, undergraduate, graduate and advanced degrees as either full-time
or part-time students.  Although applicants from anywhere in the U.S. are
encouraged to apply, priority will now be given to local applicants, that
is, those who are from or are attending school in Illinois or the greater
Chicago area.

ü Two (2) letters of recommendation 

 

Each of these items is discussed in more detail on the Scholarship
Application.  The application deadline for the 2011-2012 school year is May
6, 2011.

 

Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
You may also feel free to share this information with clients and other
contacts.

 

Sincerely,

Kelsey
