Evaluation Instructions

Thank you for volunteering your time to review and score our RMCCF College Scholarship applications!

Please make sure to have your final applicant scores submitted by Tuesday 5/28/24.

Here are a few things to note before you begin your review process:

  • You are only responsible for reviewing and evaluating each of your assigned applicants’ personal statements. Letter’s of Recommendation, Transcripts, Extracurriculars, and GPA have already been reviewed and evaluated.
  • All applications will be anonymous. Each applicant has been assigned a random number between 1-31. Some of you will be reviewing applications that contain redacted information- this is to ensure that our evaluation process is free from any unintentional/unconscious bias. The information that has been redacted includes student names, affiliated high school and colleges/universities, GPA, and direct affiliations to any of our panel of evaluators. **Please note that though they have been redacted, the intent/integrity of the applicant’s essay has not been impacted nor affected.
  • Each one of you should have received an email containing your individual evaluator number. If you have not received your evaluator number or you need to be reminded of your number, please email Joe Anzora at Joe@RMCcharity.org.
  • Please use the following rubrics as your sole tool for evaluating your applicants’ personal statements.
  • When submitting your scores, please make sure to identify your evaluator number and each applicant’s individual number. You will need to submit one form for every applicant you evaluate.

If you have any questions or concerns about the evaluation process, or need further clarification on the form and its submission, please contact Joe Anzora at Joe@RMCcharity.org or at (951) 682-2753.

NOTICE OF EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

Scholarship advisory committee members must be able to make independent decisions on behalf of the scholarship fund and the Riverside Medical Clinic Charitable Foundation without potential or perceived influence caused by a conflict of interest.

They must evaluate the eligibility of all applicants without bias and make selection recommendations based on the established objective criteria for the scholarship. Advisory committee members should avoid any situation where personal and business relationships could have, or give the appearance of having, undue influence on the member’s judgment in matters under consideration. In case of a potential conflict of interest, the member shall declare the conflict, and refrain from participating in the discussions and decision-making process.

Riverside Medical Clinic Charitable Foundation does not and shall not discriminate on the basis of any applicable protected classification including, but not limited to, race, color, religion (creed), gender, gender expression, age, national origin (ancestry), disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or military status in any of its activities or operations. These activities and operations include, but are not limited to, hiring and firing of staff, selection of volunteers and vendors, advertising for available scholarships, selection of scholarship recipients, and the provision of related services. Riverside Medical Clinic Charitable Foundation is committed to providing an inclusive and welcoming environment for all members of its staff, volunteers, vendors, applicants, and scholarship recipients.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT

A potential or actual conflict of interest exists when commitments and obligations are likely to be compromised by the employee or board member’s material interests or relationships (especially economic), particularly if those interests or commitments are not disclosed. As such, no RMCCF employee or board member (or familial relation of either) may apply for scholarship funds. If found to be applying for funds, said application will be withdrawn from consideration. These restrictions do not apply to Riverside Medical Clinic (RMC) employees unless the said employee is a relative of an RMCCF employee or board member. Please contact us via email if you have any questions or concerns or wish to report a potential conflict of interest.
