#Back2SchoolBold Scholarship
School is almost here! We're celebrating this major milestone with a scholarship + giveaway!
We know that the back to school transition is going to look a little different this time around. This scholarship exists to equip you with everything you need to jumpstart your education and help get you started off on the right foot.
The #Back2SchoolBold Scholarship is open to all students from any field of study. To apply, please submit a photo, Pinterest board, video, or any other visual medium. Please also share a short essay about what inspired your #Back2SchoolBold moment.
Your submission can be anything ranging from Y2K fashion, dorm room tours, tips on saving money, or anything that you'd like to share. The winner will be selected based on their short essay and accompanying file.
As a bonus, we will also be running a merch giveaway alongside this scholarship. To participate in the giveaway, you will need to post your submission publicly (feed post only), tag Bold.org, and use the hashtag to participate in the merch giveaway.
We’ll be putting together a collection of our favorite submissions on our social media channels for everyone to review and vote on.

We will work with donors to review all applications according to the scholarship criteria. Winners will be chosen based on the merit of their application.
Award checks will be sent to the financial aid office of the winner's academic institution or future academic institution in their name to be applied to their tuition, and in the name of their institution (depending on the school's requirements). If the award is for a qualified educational non-tuition expense, we will work with the winner directly to distribute the award and make sure it goes towards qualified expenses.
Before we award the scholarship, the winner will be required to confirm their academic enrollment status. Depending on the circumstances, verification of Student ID and/or their most recent transcript will be required.
