Congratulations C2 2017 Summer Scholarship Recipients
In celebration of our 20th Anniversary, C2 partnered with high schools across the country to offer nearly $500,000 in C2 Tutoring Scholarships. Congratulations to our 2017 summer winners who are one step closer to their college dreams with 30 FREE hours at their local C2 Center!
This scholarship recognizes deserving students that could use a little extra help with their school subjects, test prep or college planning.
Criteria for evaluation
Schools have awarded students C2 Tutoring Scholarships for a variety of reasons, including:
- Financial hardship
- Struggle in a class needed to meet graduation requirements
- Long absences due to illness or a death in the family
- The reasons are as unique as each school and each student. We welcome them all!
Directions for nomination
The summer scholarship submission date has expired. If you know of a deserving student that could use a little extra academic help, please contact your high school or local Center for upcoming application dates. We suggest the guidance team work together to nominate the student on behalf of the school.

Hajar Hraimel
Passaic County Technical Institute (PCTI), 10th grade
“Hajar Hraimel was in the Paterson School District her freshman and then was accepted into PCTI for her sophomore year. Since coming to PCTI as a sophomore, Hajar has thrived with a 3.99 GPA and composite score of 26 on the ACT. Since Hajar is only a sophomore, I feel she would benefit from further ACT/SAT training over the summer and believe she could obtain a score in the 30’s.”

It’s comforting to know I will be able to get the help and support I need to start next year strong.”
