Haralakova Family Scholarship

The Haralakova Family Scholarship was established by Plamena (Pam) Haralakova ’05 to honor her grandmother Penka who passed away in 2007. Her grandma believed in the value of higher education, even though she only had finished eighth grade. Penka encouraged her grandchildren to pursue excellence and take advantage of the opportunities presented to them. Pam wants to encourage a student majoring in business who exhibits an entrepreneurial spirit with this family scholarship.

Basic criteria:

• entering junior or senior year
• cumulative GPA of 3.20 or higher
• majoring in business
• have an entrepreneurial spirit as demonstrated by membership in on-campus clubs like the Entrepreneur’s Club or participate in Biz Plan or other activities
• financial need is considered

Renewal criteria: Students who wish to be considered for renewal must file a new application each year and will be given equal consideration with other candidates.
