USA Funds Access to Education Scholarships

The USA Funds Access to Education Scholarship Program offers $1,500 scholarships to qualified undergraduate and graduate students. Applicants must be enrolled or plan to enroll at accredited two or four-year colleges, universities or vocational/technical schools.  Annual family income must be $35,000 or less.

These one-time awards may be renewed under certain conditions, but no student will be awarded more than a total of $6,000.
 
"In keeping with our nonprofit mission to enhance postsecondary education preparedness, access and success, these scholarships are designed to help increase the college-going rates of low-to-moderate-income students," said Robert Ballard of USA Funds.

The application deadline is Feb. 16, 2009.  For more information and to apply online visit www.usafunds.org/scholarship.
