Are you a first-generation student? Required
A first-generation student is a college student who grew up in a home where both parents did not attend a four year college, where one parent has an AA only, or where one or both parents attempted some college but did not finish it. If your parents went to community college ONLY, or a technical school, or to a NON four year school in another country, you are still a first-gen. If your parent did go to college but they passed away and you lived without them for more than half of your life, then you are a first-gen. If you were raised by someone who did graduate from a 4 year college, then you are not a first-gen.
Some of our scholarships have age-specific requirements
Are you a US Citizen? Required
One of our scholarships requires US Citizenship which is why we ask this question. If you prefer not to answer, select 'prefer not to answer' and you will still be considered for other awards.
