Students are invited to click on "Apply for a Scholarship", create an account, and begin searching and applying for scholarships for which they are eligible. The online application allows for students to apply for a host of scholarships from all participating organizations.  "Our goal is to make the process more efficient for the students and increase their access to funds available for college," states program associate, Miriam Leal.
