Student Services FAQs
-
How do I find out about scholarships?
Send an email to rjrstudentservices@gmail.com with the word "Newsletter" in the subject line. Then during the course of the senior year, you will receive information via email about scholarship opportunities. These letters are also posted on the website when updated. As we only publish new scholarship opportunities per newsletter, previous newsletters remain on the website. Please follow the newsletter instructions when seeking school nominations or applying for scholarship opportunities. The RJ Reynolds Scholarship newsletters include a sampling of scholarship opportunities that are available from colleges and universities but is in no way a comprehensive list. Please refer to college websites for individual college scholarships.
