Asia Crawford, the recipient of a Charlottesville Community Scholarship Program scholarship and a 2010 graduate of Charlottesville High School, has earned a place on Ferrum College’s Dean’s List for the 2011 spring semester. This recognition is bestowed on those with a 3.4 GPA or higher. Ms. Crawford is majoring in accounting.
She is the daughter of Katherine J. Crawford.
When Ms. Crawford was applying for a CCSP scholarship, she noted she hoped to become an accountant for a production company and later own a club for teens. She likes to make people laugh. Her Charlottesville High School teachers praised her as a disciplined student possessing keen insights and the ability to think critically.
The Charlottesville Community Scholarship Program awards postsecondary scholarships to low- and moderate-income Charlottesville residents who are graduates of the city’s public schools, and to city employees. Two features help distinguish CCSP scholarships: they are renewable throughout a student’s undergraduate academic career and they are available to adults for workforce training. The adult-only application deadline is Oct. 1 each year.
Please join CCSP at the “Charlottesville’s Promise 2011″ Gala at the Paramount Theater on Oct. 29 to celebrate CCSP’s 10 years of supporting up-and-coming students like Asia Crawford. For more information on the gala, click here.
