At both events, registered scholarship providers will have a table where they can present application requirements and other important information to interested students in order to increase awareness and community engagement. An informational document that includes a brief description of all represented opportunities will be distributed during the events to give students and parents a reference guide cataloguing the available scholarships. Scholarship providers met with over 300 students at last year’s events.
