Grover Scholarship Fund
There are many scholarships available for a four-year under-graduate program. However, there are a lot of students who do not want to go down the four-year degree path, are not interested in further studies, cannot afford high college fees, or just need to start working immediately to support themselves and their families. Very often, these students are from low-income families and are more interested in trade/vocational schools to get going quickly without the burden of very heavy education costs.
This scholarship seeks to support students who are pursuing trade/vocational school programs by reducing the burden of tuition and other related costs. It is available to high school seniors or those having at least a high school diploma.
This course should be at an accredited trade school or college, with the course duration being for a minimum of six months up to a maximum of twenty-four months (2 years).
