Building a Brighter Future

The cost of ACT and SAT testing has steadily risen over the years, creating a financial barrier for many students striving to pursue higher education. These standardized tests are critical first steps in the college admissions process and can heavily influence acceptance decisions. It’s vital that financial limitations don’t delay or derail a student’s opportunity to apply to post-secondary institutions. Every student deserves a fair shot at their future—regardless of income.

Fee waivers matter—but they often come with strings attached, requiring students to prove financial hardship. We want to cut through the red tape and simply give students what they need. Apply to two schools, maybe even three. Let’s not allow $35 to stand between a young person and their future. We need your support—every dollar counts.

 The rising cost of college tuition and textbooks continues to be a major obstacle for students from underserved communities. Beyond just gaining admission, staying enrolled and succeeding academically requires access to resources many families simply can’t afford. No student should have to choose between buying books or paying for tuition. By removing these financial burdens, we create pathways to persistence, graduation, and long-term success. Education shouldn’t be a privilege—it should be a promise..

As students begin their journey toward higher education, one of the most critical decisions they face is where they’ll live. Housing plays a significant role in shaping a student’s academic performance, well-being, and overall college experience. Whether choosing to live on campus or in off-campus housing, a smooth and well-supported move-in day sets the tone for a successful and confident start to their first year.

 Providing financial assistance at the technical level can mean the difference between starting school now or postponing it indefinitely. We don’t want students to delay pursuing the program of their choice simply because of financial constraints. A scholarship offers more than just support—it lays a solid foundation for the next phase of their lives. Our goal is to help students begin their academic journey with confidence, free from the stress of financial burdens. Let’s get them school ready!
