Franchisee University Young Entrepreneur Scholarship

Franchise Law Solutions

The Franchisee University Young Entrepreneur Scholarship is open to all high school seniors in New York City. Since entrepreneurship is not about conformity and since it is never late to choose a new path, there are no GPA requirements for those who wish to participate. However, you must plan on attending college upon graduation or plan on establishing your own business.

You must also understand that this is a serious competition and the reward - that spark of entrepreneurship that may lead to many future successes and setbacks - outweighs the $500 scholarship being offered.
