The Higher Education Assistance Authority, an independent agency of the State of New Jersey, administers the Garden State Scholarship Program, which includes the Edward J Bloustein Distinguished Scholar Program. Each year more than 7,000 students statewide receive scholarships in recognition of their high level of achievement. Students selected may use this monetary award to continue their education in New Jersey institutions of higher learning. Only the highest achieving candidates were selected as Edward J Bloustein Scholars.
The criteria used in selecting these outstanding seniors is:
• class rank of one, two or three and gpa within the top ten percent of their graduating class; or
• Class rank within the top ten percent of the graduating class at the end of the junior year with combined critical reading and math scores of 1260 or higher at the end of junior year.
With a sense of pride, Morris Catholic announces that the following seniors have been selected with the highest possible state award, the Edward J. Bloustein Award:
