Three Scholarship Opportunities - May 2020



Over the past decade, the cost of tuition has been on the rise, causing both students and their parents to become increasingly concerned about how they will pay for college. Fortunately, there are many financial aid opportunities available to students to help alleviate those costs. 


One of these options is scholarships. What’s great about scholarships over other options, like student loans, is that they do not need to be repaid. Thus, the more scholarships you can get, the less you have to pay out of your own pocket. There are countless scholarship opportunities out there, but to highlight a few, we’d recommend checking out the following three scholarships below:
