IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR THE 2020-21 SCHOOL YEAR
CAS regrets to announce that, due to the constraints of the COVID-19 pandemic, we will be suspending the Connecticut Scholars Award Program for the 2020-21 school year. We hope to resume this program in full measure in 2021-22.

The Connecticut Scholars Program recognizes academically talented high school students in schools throughout the state. Principals of CAS member high schools are given the opportunity to nominate one junior who ranks in the top five percent of his or her class. The Connecticut Scholars Committee, comprised of professional educators from throughout the state, evaluate the completed applications and assign a composite score to each student based on the PSAT score and the student essay. A select group of the top students are named “Connecticut Scholars” and receive recognition and are presented with scholarship information from The University of Connecticut.

This program is made possible by the generosity of our corporate sponsors, Horace Mann, Jostens, Liberty Bank and Pullman & Comley.
