Nominations for the Boston Public High School (BPHS) Scholarships will only be accepted from guidance counselors or headmasters. Each school may nominate up to 4 candidates. Please note that if a written recommendation was not included in the student's application, nominators may submit a statement about the student's attributes which make them eligible for this scholarship.

The deadline for nominations is January 9, 2013.

Boston Public High School headmasters and guidance counselors can nominate up to 4 students from their school. It is important that nominated students meet the following criteria:
- Attend a Boston Public High School.
- In the top 10% of their high school class and have taken an academically challenging curriculum through their high school career.
- Have demonstrated creativity, diversity, engagement, global perspective, leadership, resiliency or other qualities indicative of the ability to contribute to Northeastern's diverse and vibrant community.
- Be a U.S. citizen or documented permanent resident.

Additionally, in order to progress as BPHS Scholarship Finalists, nominees must complete the FAFSA and be admitted into Northeastern University's full-time day program. Scholars must enroll in the fall semester following high school graduation.

Headmasters and guidance counselors are sent a school-specific password that can be used on this site.
