Reminder: Dream Award Deadline Approaching!

Scholarship America Dream Award

Scholarship America’s Dream Award has been established to assist students from across the nation entering their second year of post-secondary education or beyond.  This award is in the form of a renewable scholarship, which can be used at an accredited institution of the student’s choice as long as the student maintains status as a full-time student.  The awards will grow in amount each year, allowing students to receive aid throughout their college careers.

Applicants must: 1) be a U.S. Citizen, 2) have received their high school diploma by September 2013, 3) have completed or expect to successfully complete a minimum of one full year of postsecondary education by June 2014, 4) have a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, and 5) demonstrate financial need.

If selected as a recipient, the student will receive an award ranging from $5,000 to $15,000.   Awards may be renewed for up to three additional years or until a bachelor’s degree is earned, whichever occurs first.  Renewal is contingent upon satisfactory academic performance in a full-time course of study.  Each year of eligible renewal, the award will increase by $1,000.  Awards are for undergraduate study only.
    

Applications must be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. CST December 19, 2013.  The application can be accessed at www.scholarshipamerica.org/dream_award.php
