PCF x Loper Monthly College Kickstart Scholarship
About this scholarship
Loper and Project Connect Forum created the College Kickstart Scholarship to make the path from high school to college more affordable and less overwhelming. Every month, one U.S. high school student in grades 9–12 will win $500 to help cover the real costs of applying to college — whether that’s working with a counselor, paying for test prep, or paying for applications. If selected, the money goes directly to you!
The scholarship is open to all U.S. high school students in grades 9 through 12
