ANA Summer Seminar Scholarship Received 0

[VKurtB]

I have been awarded a Robert Lecce Scholarship (partial, tuition only) for the Summer Seminar this coming June. The value is $770. Because of the “extras” I ordered, including 3 extra nights room and board, to catch events between the two main weeks, I am spending a similar amount. The Robert Lecce is the only one offered by the ANA to adults of any financial status. The application was almost as daunting as a college application, complete with the essay. 
 

I wanted class #31 - A Survey of 20th and 21st Century World Coins, but that only has two sign ups, so I will most likely be in:

#34 - A History of U.S. Colonial Coins, Currency, and Medals, taught by Dr. Jesse Kraft of the ANS.

Next year, I will be applying for one of F.U.N. scholarships that are offered. Object lesson: sharpen up your writing skills.

Both courses sound very interesting. Never heard of the scholarship.

They are competitively awarded. Some full scholarships complete with transportation expenses, and others like mine -tuition only. Class #31 is on the cancellation chopping block. They need a rush of students to save it.
