100 Bold Points No-Essay Scholarship
This no-essay scholarship is awarded to the student with the boldest Bold.org profile. You must have earned at least 100 Bold Points to be eligible. Students at any education level, school, field of study, and GPA can apply.
Bold Points are one of the ways we reward you for taking steps toward paying for school, like building out a complete profile, applying to scholarships, and inviting your friends to Bold.org.
To us, BOLD doesn't mean best or most accomplished. Being BOLD means being earnest, determined, and moving. We'll award this scholarship to the student whose profile best shows those qualities, and we favor students who apply early instead of putting it off.
We want to help you pay for school with less student debt. That's why we offer no-essay scholarships like this one, along with many other easy scholarships you can apply to on Bold.org.
