For teens and young adults. This seminar will help parents and students navigate the terrain of scholarship research and writing. It will also address the myth that students need A+ grades to win.
Whether in high school, college or university, students should know the importance of scholarship research and writing. Having a track record of scholarship attainment is a great asset for students entering competitive employment or academic opportunities, but it is also a great way to offset the cost of education. Despite this, many students will never apply for a scholarship.
No matter where you or your child are in the educational journey, this event will provide you with worthwhile, and potentially lucrative, knowledge.
