Homeschool Students Service Scholarship
The homeschool community has grown exponentially in recent years, yet many homeschooled students remain isolated from traditional forms of aid.
Homeschooled students may not benefit from the same college advisory resources that public school students may enjoy, and they may have less knowledge of or less eligibility for many scholarship opportunities. Given the rapidly rising costs of college, this discrepancy in accessibility can leave homeschooled students at a significant disadvantage when it comes to paying for higher education.
This scholarship seeks to support students who are homeschooled but planning to continue their education through college.
Any high school senior who is homeschooled may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they have at least a 3.0 GPA and at least fifty hours of verifiable community service completed during four years of high school. Applicants must be planning to attend a two or four-year college in the fall.
To apply, tell us about yourself, your intended field of study, and how your experience with homeschool has prepared you for college and your career. Additionally, upload proof of community service hours. If you don’t have a certificate or documentary proof, submit a letter from your community service supervisor confirming your hours.
Tell us about yourself and your planned course of study. How has your experience as a homeschooled student prepared you for your collegiate academic pursuits and future career endeavors?
