Greetings from Chapel Hill!
Welcome to the 2019–2020 selection year for the Morehead-Cain—the first merit scholarship program established in the United States. For more than thirty years, Canadian students have come to Carolina as Morehead-Cain Scholars and contributed to this campus as dynamic, enthusiastic students and leaders. They remain closely connected to the University, Chapel Hill, and each other as alumni. About half of our Canadian alumni live and work in Canada, and the rest are spread around the world, from the United Kingdom to Singapore, and all across the United States. The Morehead-Cain represents a compelling opportunity to study—and to make a difference—at one of the finest universities in the world: the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. At Morehead-Cain, we choose scholars based on four criteria: leadership, moral force of character, scholarship, and physical vigor. In each high school senior class, there are a select few who embody these criteria and set a higher standard for the school community. We encourage you to nominate up to three of your strongest student-leaders for the scholarship. We have included instructions to help you with this process. As you begin to plan for this fall, please keep a few things in mind:
If you have any questions in the meantime, please feel free to call us, at (919) 962-1201 or email us at [email protected]. We look forward to the opportunity to get to know your nominees this year, and we appreciate your efforts on our behalf! JUSTINE R.
