Who Can Apply:
- College is a stepping stone in life that has the power to catapult students into entirely different lives.
- Unfortunately, many students from low or middle-income homes simply don’t have the financial means to afford years of tuition, costly textbooks, school supplies, and living expenses. As a result, many students turn to loans or forego their college plans altogether. Student loans often prove difficult to pay off, leaving many students in debt for decades, altering the trajectory of their careers and personal lives.
- This scholarship seeks to support students who are just starting out on their journeys in higher education so they can stay in school and complete their degrees.
- Any undergraduate freshman from Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama or Louisiana who is pursuing a degree in STEM may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
Submission: To apply, tell us about a challenge you’ve faced, how you overcame it, how this experience affected your goals, why representation is important, and how you plan to improve diversity and inclusion in your field.
