Foundation Scholarship Awards
  If you are interested in receiving a scholarship award please read the following information VERY CAREFULLY!

  The TCI Foundation does not give out scholarship awards. It funds them. The actual awards are given out by Tall Clubs International, Inc., a separate entity.

The Process
  At some point during the school year, usually after the first of the new year, a local TCI member club may have some rendition of a tall highschool senior 'Teen Scholarship' drive. This event often results in some scholarship awards being made on a local club level as well as a particular standout being selected as that Club's "TCI Teen Scholarship" candidate.

  Each and every member tall club has an opportunity to submit a candidate to the TCI Alternate Executive Board for consideration of scholarship awards, announced at the next TCI Convention. This is the only way a candidate can be considered for a teen scholarship award!

  If you are interested in pursuing a teen scholarship, you must satisfy the following requirements:

You must live in an area which has a TCI Member Club . . .
You must meet the minimum height requirements of our organization, being 5'10" for women and 6'2" for men . . .
The height requirements are non-negotiable . . . !
You should then contact a local club representative and request info on their Teen Scholarship program . . .
It is most unfortunate, but if you do not have a tall club in your area you cannot qualify for these scholarship awards, plain and simple! These awards are not "open to the public" per se and can only be awarded as described heretofore.

Bear in mind not all TCI member clubs have a Teen Scholarship program. If your local Club does not have an active representative for this program, you can still request they submit you to the TCI Alternate Executive Board as their candidate. This will usually require an application of sorts along with an essay discussing the virtues, good or bad, of height in our society. They can then decide at their next regular business meeting if they would like to submit you as their candidate.

It is requested that you read carefully all details that have been described above. Now is not the time to be inquiring further of this program. Normally, inquiries will be answered after the first of the new year. If you wish to be notified when the time comes, please click here!
