To compete in the Raw Talent High School Beauty Scholarship program, candidates visited their local Marinello Schools of Beauty to complete either an “updo” for those interested in Cosmetology or a full make-up application for those interested in Esthetics. Additionally, applicants submitted an essay about what they will do to make a difference in the beauty industry. The essays were evaluated by the High School Scholarship Committee at Marinello Schools of Beauty’s corporate headquarters and judged on content, creativity, spelling, syntax and grammar.
