Who Can Apply:
- College has many inherent expenses, but while tuition and housing are often covered in scholarships, few focus on the other costs of college.
- Textbooks, technological tools, and various equipment are required for college students, and they aren’t cheap. The Lotus Scholarship seeks to offset the cost of these additional college expenses as well as support students who are children of single parents or come from low-income households. Support is important in order for students to succeed, and this scholarship hopes to provide some of that support for minority students.
- BIPOC high school seniors, undergraduate and graduate students are eligible to apply if they are either from a low-income background or have been raised by a single parent.
Submission: To apply, write about the lessons you’ve learned coming from a single-parent or low-income household and how you will use your life experiences to create a positive impact on the lives of others. Please describe how you’re actively working towards pursuing your goals.
Deadline: February 5, 2025
