Who Can Apply:
- Every first-generation college student deserves access to the resources and support necessary to thrive in their educational journey.
- First-generation students are up against significant financial, academic, and informational barriers due to the lack of college-educated mentors in their lives who can offer advice, monetary assistance, and other help. In order to break cycles and create a more equitable workforce and future, first-gen students must be empowered to pursue higher education and must be uplifted throughout the process so they can have the same opportunities as their peers.
- This scholarship seeks to support students who need help paying for college so they can achieve all of their goals.
- Any high school senior in the United States who has leadership experience and has made an impact on their community may apply for this scholarship opportunity, but applicants who will be first-generation college students are encouraged to apply.
