Question 1

How to find scholarships for adopted children

Accepted Answer

After creating your free Bold.org profile, you can begin looking for scholarships that you are eligible for. You can use the scholarship search to find scholarships specifically created for adopted children and foster children.

There are also some scholarships for adopted students in the "Family" category of the scholarship page. For BIPOC and low-income adopted children, you can also look in the "Diversity and Inclusion" category for some scholarships.

Question 2

How do I know if I'm eligible for a scholarship?

Accepted Answer

Each scholarship opportunity on Bold.org has a distinct list of eligibility requirements, including requirements. These criteria can include financial status, grade level, demographic, field of study, race, gender, location, or even first-generation status. Often, donors try to uplift underrepresented students. As a result, there are many scholarships for marginalized students, such as BIPOC, LGBTQ+, low-income, and/or disabled students.

Question 3

When can I start applying?

Accepted Answer

You can begin applying for scholarships as soon are you're in high school and at least fourteen years old. Some high school scholarships are only open to high school seniors preparing to graduate and attend college, but there are also plenty of scholarship opportunities that are open to all high school students, even freshmen!

The earlier you begin applying for scholarships, the more time you'll give yourself to win funding for your college degree. If you need considerable financial assistance to afford college, you should start applying for support services as soon as possible so you can earn all the financial aid you need in order to avoid student debt.
