Elite Security International Scholarship
The academic world can be incredibly confusing and intimidating, regardless of one’s background or connections.
However, college is even more difficult to understand and navigate for students who are the first in their families to pursue higher education. When parents are unable to offer mentorship or advice, students are forced to be more independent and figure out the right path on their own.
This scholarship aims to support students who are walking a new path by pursuing a college education so they can create a new legacy for their families.
Any high school senior in Texas who will be a first-generation undergraduate student may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
To apply, write a short essay in response to the prompt below.
