What Is a Scholarship and How to Apply for It?

All adults remember the times when they were recent college graduates far from understanding how to navigate the world of finance. We also know how important education is for students and how difficult their academic journey may be without the necessary funds.

To encourage young people to acquire proactive financial habits and help them overcome financial challenges, we introduce a scholarship contest and offer $1000 to spend on their educational purposes, like college books, tuition, loans, or equipment.

Go on reading for more details, and do not hesitate to apply by filling in a form on our website!
