Follow UP Sample #2   Scholarship Awarded to you, send Thank You Notes.
Follow UP Sample #3   Scholarship Awarded try to give back your time, and effort.
Follow UP Sample #4   Scholarship Awarded: Money will not be paid, until a letter indicating your school prefrence
Follow UP Sample #5   No scholarship awarded to you for this year: be sure to re-apply the following year if applicable
Follow UP Sample #6   Mid Year Update (these should go out to the committees that you recieved funding from, annually)
