GlamSmart Legacy Scholarship
Founded by Shanti, a first-generation real estate professional, this scholarship honors beauty and brilliance, prayer and purpose, and elegance and execution.
Young women who are building a legacy through grace and grit should be empowered to go after all of their goals, regardless of their circumstances in life. The rising costs of higher education and limited availability of loans or other assistance often stand in the way of students achieving their dreams.
This scholarship seeks to support underrepresented students, especially young women, pursuing degrees or certifications in STEM or real estate.
Any female or nonbinary high school senior, undergraduate, or trade school student who is an Alabama resident may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they have at least a 3.0 GPA and if they’re pursuing real estate or STEM. Applicants must be African American, Black, or from another underrepresented group.
To apply, tell us what legacy means to you, who has modeled resilience for you, how you’re breaking cycles or barriers, how you’ve shown perseverance, and how you plan to help others through your career.
