College Choice Form

The DSF Scholarship Application for the 2018-19 school year is now closed.

Updates to your college selection for the 2018-19 academic year are no longer being accepted. The college selected on your College Choice Form as of July 15 is the college where you will be considered for a scholarship award for the entire 2018-19 academic year. If you will not be attending the college DSF has on file, you will not be eligible for the DSF Scholarship for the upcoming academic year.

Appeals

DSF expects students to meet all requirements detailed in the DSF Scholarship Policy. However, we understand that sometimes students face situations that are beyond their control and need some flexibility in order to deal with those situations. Appeals to request exceptions to the scholarship policy will only be considered in cases of truly exceptional personal or family circumstances.

DSF will review and consider appeals based on the following extenuating circumstances:

Death in your immediate family
Medical illness or injury (personal/immediate family)
Other special circumstances beyond the student’s control

Time management issues, poor decision-making, forgetting about a deadline, or human error are not sufficient grounds for an appeal.

Appeals will NOT be considered for the following situations:

Denver Public Schools (DPS) Enrollment
DPS Graduation
High School GPA Below 2.0
College Academic Requirements
Eligible Colleges
Scholarship Amount
Length of Eligibility
Graduate School

You must continue to meet any remaining DSF requirements while your appeal is being reviewed. If your appeal is approved and a requirement is not met, you may lose your scholarship for the entire academic year.

If you believe that your situation may fall within the types of extenuating circumstances described above, contact a member of the DSF Scholarship team to discuss the situation which caused you to miss a DSF deadline or requirement.

You are encouraged to work with your Future Center Advisor, Campus Contact, DSF Campus Advisor, or other student support professional on campus for help with contacting DSF.

After DSF staff has considered your situation, we will inform you if you should submit an appeal for committee review. If the staff member determines that the situation should be reviewed by the committee, a DSF appeal form and instructions will be provided to the student and/or advisor.

Appeal Deadlines:

June 30 for appeals regarding the application process
September 30 for appeals regarding fall term scholarship award status
February 1 for appeals regarding winter or spring term scholarship award status
