55% of Bold.org students expect to need private loans in the future, in addition to federal aid.
Getting your loans right is one of the most important financial decisions you can make as a student.
To help you get set up for success, we’ve partnered with LeverEdge to create this exclusive scholarship.
LeverEdge uses collective bargaining to negotiate better loan rates, saving you an average of $13,000. We recommend LeverEdge because:
Being prepared is critical to finding the right loan. By applying to this scholarship, you’ll gain access to future loan options from LeverEdge, at far below market rates.
While the scholarship will be awarded on May 1, 2021, the scholarship will have rolling monthly application deadlines. Students applying within earlier application windows will have a greater chance of winning the award.
The application deadline is Mar 1, 2021. Winners will be announced on May 1, 2021.

The scholarship award is $1,000. It will be awarded to 1 winner every year.
The winner will be publicly announced on May 1, 2021. Prior to the announcement date, we may contact finalists with additional questions about their application. We will work with donors to review all applications according to the scholarship criteria. Winners will be chosen based on the merit of their application.
We will send the award check to the winner’s academic institution in their name, and in the name of their institution (depending on the school’s requirements).
Before we award the scholarship, the winner will be required to verify their academic enrollment status by providing a copy of their most recent transcript.
