MACOMB, IL – Hoffman Estates High School senior Kaitlyn Jedrzejowski, of Hoffman Estates, IL, has been selected for Western Illinois University's Centennial Honors Scholarship, which awards $10,000 per year to academically high-achieving students.

High school students with an ACT score of 30 or higher (or SAT equivalent of 1360), and a grade point average of 3.0 or higher, are eligible for the scholarship.

Jedrzejowski plans to major in communication and public relations.

"WIU had been a college I was considering since my freshman year. I saw the price and all the different scholarships WIU offered and realized it was definitely a college I could afford to attend, which is a huge factor for me," said Jedrzejowski.

After graduation, Jedrzejowski hopes to work with the ELCA headquarters and hope to be involved in coordinating events like the National Youth Gathering.
