How to win it
To stand out for the Boettcher Scholarship, focus on showcasing your leadership potential and community involvement with specific, meaningful examples rather than a long list of activities. Make sure your application reflects a strong academic record and a genuine commitment to Colorado, since you must have lived here during your junior and senior years and plan to attend a four-year nonprofit college in the state. This renewable award supports you for all four years, so present yourself as someone ready to grow, lead, and give back to Colorado over the long term.
