As most of you already know, the initial scholarship Carissa received will cover tuition for fall and winter semesters at BYU as well as $1,000 each semester for books and other supplies. This scholarship can be renewed her sophomore year if certain criteria is met.
Carissa also just received another scholarship this past Friday for $2,000 ($1,000 each semester which will pay half of her housing for the year). The scholarship is from the Jeff & Kenna Cooper Foundation through a perpetual education fund that has been established. (Brother Cooper taught all three of the Carlson kids in seminary).
These scholarships are such a blessing to Carissa and her family. Congratulations, Sis, for working so hard to qualify for these scholarships. You deserve it!
