The staff at Graves McLain are always overjoyed to have an opportunity to help students in our community succeed. As in previous years, the Graves McLain College Scholarship Essay Program for 2018 was open to submissions from all prospective or current undergraduate students attending an accredited college or university.
This year, we were able to present our winner with a $1,000 scholarship to put toward their tuition as they pursue any field of study at an accredited college. Our topic for this year was a “Powerful Life Experience That Has Changed Your Life.”
