Scholarships below are organized and offered by our affiliate schools. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of eligibility requirements and deadlines, especially where the scholarship is to be submitted. Some scholarships are turned in to the affiliate school's Guidance Office, but the majority are submitted online or by mail by the student.  Any student that needs a transcript to mail with a scholarship can request one from their home school guidance office.
