SR Education Group Community College Scholarship
|
SR Education Group's Guide to Online Schools is awarding a need-based scholarship of $2000 to community college students. We at SR Education Group understand that raising the funds necessary for an education can be difficult. As a result, we would like to lend a hand. To provide our judges with a true understanding of each applicant, he or she must answer two open-ended, personal, and thought-provoking questions. The students whose responses are the most persuasive, compelling, and well-written, as judged by our panel, will be considered finalists. After making it to the final round, we will ask each applicant to submit a copy of his or her FAFSA. This will help us ensure that the students in question have a substantial need for the money. The winner will be chosen after reviewing both the questions and the FAFSA report. |
