PARENTS, CAREGIVERS and STUDENTS:
A number of companies and organizations have donated money for scholarship use by African Americans. Regrettably, a large portion of the money is being returned unused. With the cost of higher education steadily increasing, qualified students have the opportunity to take control of their own academic success.
NABSE has received the following scholarship announcements. We hope everyone who visits our website, both members and non-members, will use this scholarship information. Assume an active role in helping students within the realm of your influence obtain money as they pursue a college education. For our part, NABSE will continue to post new announcements as we receive them - so check back often!
Visit the links below and begin securing your future…then encourage those around you to do the same! Help spread the word about these available funds!
