All North Texas high school seniors, students with GED diplomas, undergraduate (2yr or 4yr) college students, and students at vocational or trade schools who meet the requirements below are eligible.

Requirements:

• US citizen or Permanent Resident
• High School Senior
• Minimum 3.0 GPA

You do not have to be currently enrolled in school to apply, but you must show evidence from an accredited institution that you will be enrolling, and that the scholarship support you seek will be applied there.

Yes, we take many factors into consideration when determining your candidacy for the scholarship. Leadership, community service, socio-economic factors, the quality of your essay and other strengths are all taken into account in the decision-making process.

Our typical scholarship recipients demonstrate resiliency in the face of hardship, give back to their communities, are drug-free, and have GPAs of at least 3.0. Students with GPAs above this range are extremely encouraged to apply.

Here are some steps you can take:

1. Start your application early and complete it on time. The earlier you start the application, the better chance you have to submit the application before the deadline. You also have more time to ask us questions in case any part of the process needs clarification.
2. Tell us about yourself in 700 words or less and use specific details when sharing your extracurricular activities. Specific details can help us understand how great you are. The same can be said about your essay. We don’t expect the essay to run too long but make sure your essay helps us learn more about you and your perspectives.
3. Review your application for grammar and spelling errors.
4. The photo is optional. If you decide to provide a photo, please send us a headshot from the shoulders up similar to an ID card.
