CHE Sets Virtual Workshop Dates for Palmetto Fellows Early Application Cycle

The S.C. Commission on Higher Education will host five online sessions this fall to help high school counselors and administrators prepare students for Palmetto Fellows Scholarship early applications.

The South Carolina Commission on Higher Education will offer a series of virtual workshops this fall to assist high school counselors and administrators with the Palmetto Fellows Scholarship Early Application cycle, according to the commission.

Two types of sessions will be available. One is a full Early Application Workshop that walks participants through the updated digital application process step by step, including instructions for submitting applications electronically. The other is a shorter Basics & Updates Workshop meant as a refresher for experienced users, covering eligibility reminders, recent changes and common mistakes to avoid.

The full Application Workshop will be held three times: September 14 at 1 p.m., September 29 at 9:30 a.m., and October 2 at 11 a.m.

The Basics & Updates Workshop will be held twice: September 24 at 10 a.m. and October 7 at noon.

All sessions will take place over Zoom, and registration links are provided for each date. The commission is encouraging high school counselors, school administrators and association partners to register for the session that best fits their needs.

Questions about the workshops can be directed to Kathryn Harris, program manager for state scholarships, at [email protected] or (803) 856-0738, or Tanya Weigold, also a program manager for state scholarships, at [email protected] or (803) 856-0672.
