Admission/Scholarship Essays
The Academic Success Center offers Bucks students assistance with college admission or scholarship essays. Tutors are available for one-on-one sessions with students in both the online and physical ASC locations.
Additionally, the ASC is offering a series of workshops throughout the semester. These workshops will review basic information about finding scholarships, crafting effective responses, and revising materials before submission. They will run in-person at the Newtown ASC and online via Zoom.
