******
Students can now apply for more than $2 million in scholarships from The Sallie Mae Fund, a charitable organization sponsored by Sallie Mae.
Delivered through The Fund's Project Access program, these scholarships target low income and minority populations in an effort to increase access to higher education. Project Access addresses three key barriers to higher education-awareness of financial aid, academic performance and financial need.
The Sallie Mae Fund scholarship programs include:
The Sallie Mae Fund First in My Family® Scholarship Program: The Sallie Mae Fund developed the First in My Family program in partnership with the Hispanic College Fund, to offer scholarships to Hispanic-American students who are first in their family to attend college. Selected students receive scholarships ranging from $500 to $5,000. http://www.hispanicfund.org/clients/hcf/hcc.nsf/View01/7430EB2E07A0600B85256C86007E3625?OpenDocument
The Sallie Mae Fund Unmet Need Scholarship Program: The Unmet Need Scholarship Program is intended to help financial aid officers meet the needs of full-time, undergraduate students whose financial aid packages fall short by $1,000 or more. Open to families with a combined income of less than $30,000, Unmet Need scholarships provide a "last dollar" resource when no other funds are available. http://www.thesalliemaefund.org/projectaccess/need.html
The Sallie Mae Fund American Dream Scholarship Program: Developed in partnership with the United Negro College Fund, the American Dream program offers scholarships ranging from $500 to $5,000 to African-American students with demonstrated financial need. http://www.uncf.org/scholarships/scholardetail.asp?Sch_ID=10771
The Sallie Mae 911 Education Fund: Created in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the 911 Education Fund provides scholarship dollars to children of those who were killed or permanently disabled in the attacks. http://www.thesalliemaefund.org/projectaccess/scholarships/smf_911.html
To be eligible for The Sallie Mae Fund scholarship programs, students must be accepted and enrolled at a Title IV eligible, accredited postsecondary two- or four-year college or university, vocational, or technical school in the United States or Puerto Rico and meet program-specific eligibility requirements.
Applications are now available online at www.salliemaefund.org.
