Students at Chattooga Mountain Education have two scholarship deadlines coming up tomorrow, Wednesday, September 30.

The Chattooga campus calendar lists Wednesday as the deadline for both the Home Depot Path to Pro Scholarship and the Coca-Cola Scholarship. Both applications are available online, with the Coca-Cola scholarship deadline listed for 5 PM Wednesday.

The scholarship opportunities are among several college and career resources being promoted to students through the local Mountain Education campus.

Chattooga Mountain Education provides an alternative path for students working toward an accredited high school diploma. Mountain Education describes its program as a student-centered, self-paced, evening public high school, allowing students to work toward graduation outside the traditional daytime high school schedule.

The Chattooga campus is located at 302 Maple Drive in Summerville. The campus phone number is 706-230-8937.

Wednesday will also be a busy day on campus beyond the scholarship deadlines. The calendar includes a Course Completion Incentive and a Trailblazer Charcuterie Experience for September 30.

Students interested in either scholarship should check with Chattooga Mountain Education or use the online application information provided through the campus calendar before Wednesday’s deadlines.
