My Conversation with Rachel Davison Humphries, Senior Director of Civic Learning Initiatives at the Bill of Rights Institute
Listen to my exclusive interview with Rachel to learn all about the MyImpact Challenge here:
Scholarship GPS is a Proud Sponsor of the MyImpact Challenge!
Is the cost of your child's college education keeping you up at night?
Is your college savings plan insufficient or non-existent?
Are you worried that your student will be paying back student loans for the rest of their life?
Those were my fears, too!
I didn't want my son to be burdened with student loans for 20+ years of his life. But, I had failed to save enough money to pay for his college degree. So, I coached him to win nearly $100,000 in scholarships, and he's now a debt-free college graduate!
Students don't need a perfect 4.0 GPA to win scholarships!
Average students can win scholarships if they know how.
Students don't have to come from a low-income household to win scholarships!
Most scholarships don't even ask about a student's financial situation.
Students don't have to be star athletes to win scholarships!
Sports scholarships make up a tiny fraction of the scholarships out there.
Having success with scholarships requires a plan, and that’s what Scholarship GPS provides.
The course features concise video lessons designed to seamlessly fit into your busy schedule, allowing you to learn at your own pace. Throughout the course, you'll acquire essential scholarship skills, including:
