FundforThought.com awards scholarships based on the students essay submission describing what they have achieved and how they plan to make a difference in their field of study. We limit the number of applicants for each scholarship to 250 essay entries, which eliminates the "Why bother?" feeling that most students have when having to apply against thousands of other students, and also include more students by not requiring SAT or GPA scores. We believe that by providing better chances of receiving financial help for their studies, we can give hope to those who dream to make a difference.
