Who Can Apply:
- Education is incredibly important and valuable, especially for low-income immigrant families seeking out the opportunity for a better future.
- My late wife and I are children of immigrants who instilled the value of hard work, saving money and education. With the help of scholarships, we were in turn able to send our only son to a four year college without any student debt.
- This scholarship seeks to support students with financial need as they pursue their goals of higher education in order to create the life of their dreams.
- Any high school senior who will be a low-income, first-generation college student at a two or four-year institution may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they have at least a 3.8 GPA and if they’re at least 50% Asian (East Asian or Southeast Asian preferred) and from an immigrant family. However, students pursuing STEM, those with community service experience, applicants with part-time work history, and those who display leadership are preferred.
Submission: To apply, tell us about yourself and how your experience as an East or Southeast Asian immigrant has impacted your goals. Additionally, upload a picture of yourself.
