To apply for the academic scholarship, please submit a standardized test score report (SAT/ACT/CLT). Higher test scores may be submitted to your counselor for reevaluation at any time prior to attending PHC. In addition, the Scholarship Review Committee may consider performance indicators including the strength of their academic background, writing skills, and personal interview in determining the student's Academic Scholarship.
A student may qualify for more than one scholarship from among academic, merit, endowed, and Family Assistance. Qualification is not a guarantee that multiple scholarships will be awarded. The number and amount of awards is based on available funding each year. The College seeks to steward the resources made available each year to assist as many students as possible.
Annual Award: Up to $14,000.
