Millner wins Morehouse scholarship Marlon Millner has won a renewable Achievement Scholarship financed by More house College. Some 740 Achievement Scholar ships, worth approximately $3 million, have been awarded in 1991 to outstanding black stu dents. Approximately 200 of the awards, such as the one Millner has won, are being financed by about 50 U.S. colleges and universities. College sponsored Achievement Scholarships provide between $250 and $2,000 per year for under graduate study at the sponsor college. Winners were chosen by officials of each sponsor institu tion from Achievement Program Finalists who will auend that college. The 1991 competition began when some 90,000 black students requested consideration in the Achievement Program at the time they took the 1989 PSAT/NMSQT, which serves as the qualifying test for participation in the competi tion. Approximately 1,500 of these students, the highest scorers in the states that comprise each of several geographic regions, were announced as semifinalists in September 1990. To advance in the competition, semifinalists had to become finalists by meeting high academ ic standards and submitting information about their activities, personal interests, and goals. Of the semifinalists, 1,200 qualified as finalists and were considered for awards. Achievemen Scholars are candidates judged for future aca ?09 ?. Marlon Millner demic success. Two other types of Achievement Scholar ships were offered in 1991. Every finalist was considered for one of the 350 National Achieve ment $2000 Scholarships, single-payment awards that are distributed on a regional repre sentation basis. About 190 four-year Achieve ment Scholarships sponsored by corporate and business organizations were awarded to Finalists who have qualifications of particular interest to their grantor organizations.
