EASY SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS GRADUATING 2022+

The College Board has introduced a new program that offers students a chance to be awarded College Board Opportunity Scholarships.  It was designed to help guide students through the college-admissions processes and motivate them to tackle the intimidating obstacles in the journey.  Students must follow 6 steps to qualify for a series of scholarships.  Completing all 6 steps makes you eligible (note: scholarship(s) are not guaranteed) for a $40,000 scholarship on top of the smaller scholarships ranging from $500-$2,000 totaling $6,000.  To qualify, you must complete the following 6 steps during your junior year of high school:

1. Build your college list:  $500
   • Explore colleges that you’re interested in on BigFuture
2. Practice for the SAT:  $1,000
   • Use Official SAT Practice on Khan Academy to get ready for test day
3. Improve your SAT Score:  $2,000
   • Show how practice pays off by improving your SAT score **Call Excel Test Prep for help with this step :)
4. Strengthen your College List:  $500
   • Make sure your college list has a mix of academic safety, fit, and reach schools
5. Complete the FAFSA:  $1,000
   • Fill out the free government form to apply for financial aid
6. Apply to Colleges:  $1,000
   • Apply to the colleges that you want to attend (Yes! It is THAT easy to win this money!)

If you complete all 6 of these steps then you become eligible for a $40,000 scholarship!

This is an easy $6,000 that you can be awarded for doing something you’re probably going to do anyway!  Then, on top of that, you will have the chance to be awarded a $40,000 scholarship!  For all of you out there looking for financial assistance and are having a hard time qualifying for some, then consider accomplishing these easy-to-do steps as everyone who completes them qualifies regardless of personal attributes or lack thereof.
