Total Landscape Care is still accepting applications for its annual TLC Scholarship Contest, and this time there will be a winner for each semester.
The deadline for submissions is quickly approaching. To be considered for the fall semester’s scholarship, interested applicants must have completed the submission by Wednesday, July 12.
Students wishing to pursue a career in landscaping who are majoring in a related discipline at an accredited university, community college or technical school are welcome to apply.
This year there will be only a first-place winner per semester, unlike last year where there were second and third place winners.
The scholarship recipient will receive a certificate and a write-up on Total Landscape Care’s website, along with the $2,500 scholarship that will be sent to their school.
Required information for this application includes a resume, photo and responses to a few essay questions. Please complete all areas of the application, otherwise your submission will not be counted.
Many academic areas can lead to a career in landscaping, therefore the essay questions will give us the opportunity to learn more about your specific career goals.
In addition to your career goals, we also ask you to share some of your perceptions of the landscaping industry.
We would like to see your views on challenges the landscape industry is facing in 2017 and in the future, as well as your appreciation for the green industry’s ongoing contribution to America’s quality of life.
It is not necessary to complete the form in its entirety in one sitting, but you will need to save your progress before exiting the form in order to receive a return link to your application.
As previously mentioned, submissions that are not fully completed will not be considered, so please be sure all areas of the application are filled out before submitting.
For those wishing to be considered for the spring semester, the application must be completed by Wednesday, Nov. 15.
