SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS
On behalf of The Doctor Family Foundation and Blumenthal Performing Arts, Foundation For The Carolinas (“FFTC”) awards scholarships on the
basis of a competitive process that considers performing arts abilities or backstage skills, academic achievement, extracurricular and community
involvement, a statement of the applicant’s personal aspirations and educational goals, financial need, and references. Applicants are advised to
thoroughly review the guidelines for specific criteria relating to the scholarship for which they are applying. Scholarships are awarded at the discretion
of FFTC’s Board of Directors based on The Mary Doctor Performing Arts Scholarship Fund Committee recommendations. FFTC pays scholarship
funds directly to the recipient’s school. Scholarships are designated for tuition, required fees, books, supplies and school-related living expenses.
Scholarships are awarded for one year only. FFTC may consider renewal scholarships for one year each and may be renewed up to three times for a
maximum of four years of undergraduate study provided funds are available, the recipient enrolls full-time and the recipient maintains qualifying
criteria. Scholarships are awarded without regard to race, color, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender or sexual orientation.
