Dollars for Scholars Student Volunteer Award

Scholarship America

This award is for students who live in a community with a Dollars for Scholars affiliate. To qualify, applicants must be enrolled in or planning to enroll full-time at an accredited two- or four-year college, university, or vocational-technical school. Adult students entering or resuming a postsecondary program of study are eligible, and past recipients of the award are eligible to apply again. All students who complete a profile on their local Dollars for Scholars affiliate website, meet the eligibility requirements, and receive a recommendation from their local affiliate will match and be able to and have the opportunity to apply for the Dollars for Scholars Student Volunteer Award. Applications will be evaluated on volunteer service (with Dollars for Scholars volunteer hours earning the highest points) as well as academics, activities, and other criteria.
