Say Thank You After Receiving a Scholarship
If you've recently received a scholarship award letter, it means you've done several things right: from your grades to your after-school activities to getting your scholarship application materials in on time. But there's one more thing to do: Write a thank you letter.
Just as you would thank someone who gave you a birthday or graduation gift, you should thank the person or organization who awarded your scholarship. Scholarship dollars should be treated as the gift they are. Scholarship sponsors want to know that their gift to you is appreciated.
