ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS

Any student of African, Hispanic, Asian or Native American descent who is
completing the 11th grade, has a cumulative grade point average of at least
3.0, is interested in pursuing a career in the media industry, and plans to
attend a four-year accredited college or university is eligible to apply to
the Emma L. Bowen Foundation Work/Study Program. Your grade transcript, at
least two (2) educational references from teachers and/or advisors, and a
500 - 1,000 word essay must accompany the application form





COMPLETING THE APPLICATION (HELPFUL HINTS)

1. Take the time to fill out the application carefully and completely.
This is the first impression you will make with a potential employer. Not
everyone who submits an application will be chosen. You are already a
"star." Help us know what makes you unique.
2. Be as neat as possible.
Typing is preferable, but not required. If you handwrite it, be sure it is
legible and easily read. You may attach separate pages for any answers
that cannot be completed on the application form.
3. Complete the Essay Requirement
Your essay will count heavily in the selection process. Your writing style
and attention to detail (spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc.) will help
us better evaluate your strengths and potential.
4. Read the Integrity Pledge Carefully
Your signature on the application indicates that you have read, understand
and agree with the importance of pursuing honesty and excellence in your
academic and professional life.
5. Prepare Your Application Package
Place your application in an envelope. Don't forget your grade transcript
and reference letter(s). If you have a passport-sized picture of yourself,
include that too. Mail the package to the appropriate Emma L. Bowen
regional office (see "The Application Form" below).



WHAT NEXT?

If your application is selected, we will invite you for an interview. If
you are selected for the work/study program, you will begin working in
June of 2005. As an employee, we will expect you to be a conscientious,
dependable team player. As a student, you will be expected to maintain at
least a 3.0 cumulative grade-point average during high school and college
to remain in the program.
We appreciate your interest and thank you for taking the time to complete
this application. If you are selected, we can promise that a whole new
world will be open to you. The Emma L. Bowen Foundation will provide the
opportunity - you can provide the talent.
GOOD LUCK!









Thanks for your help and good luck this semester.
