Who Can Apply:
- Many students are in need of financial aid as the costs of a college education continue to rise, becoming increasingly inaccessible for the average student.
- Unfortunately, there is limited funding for scholarships, and many of the opportunities available are reserved for students who display academic excellence or leadership achievement. As a result, many students who demonstrate the equally important strengths of determination, integrity, and perseverance in overcoming adversity are left behind.
- Everyone battles with adversity at some point in their life. Adversity is defined as a state of continued struggle, hardship, and difficulty that causes prolonged distress – often caused by a major or a series of unfortunate events outside your control. This scholarship aims to support students who have shown resilience in overcoming their own challenges.
- Any high school student or undergraduate student who has been faced with adversity may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
Submission: To apply, write an essay of 1,000 words or less, telling us about a time that you encountered an obstacle or challenge. How did you navigate this situation, and what lessons did you learn from it? Who was your support system and why?
