Fernandez Scholarship
Financial aid is a crucial stepping stone on the path to higher education for many students.
As the cost of tuition, textbooks, and living expenses continue to grow, it has become increasingly difficult for the average student to afford a college education. When student loans are the only option, many debt-averse students turn away from their dreams.
This scholarship aims to make higher education more accessible by supporting students who are preparing to make the transition from high school to college.
Any high school senior in California may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
