As an Asian female junior in high school, I'm trying to find scholarships that are specifically targeted toward students like me. It would be super helpful to know about any such opportunities so I can start preparing my applications early.
If anyone has information about scholarships that support diversity or are specifically for Asian females, I'd appreciate the details on eligibility and any recommendations on where to look!
Absolutely! There are numerous scholarships available specifically for Asian students, female students, or both. Here are a few examples:
1. The Asian & Pacific Islander American Scholarship Fund (APIASF): This is the largest non-profit in the U.S. dedicated to providing college scholarships for Asian and Pacific Islander Americans (APIA). They offer a variety of scholarship programs.
2. The Asian Women in Business Scholarship Fund: It offers scholarships to exceptional Asian female students who have demonstrated scholarship, leadership, community service, and/ or entrepreneurship.
3. The Conference on Asian Pacific American Leadership (CAPAL) Public Service Scholarship: This is open to currently enrolled undergraduate and graduate students.
Remember, these are just a few examples. There are also scholarships dedicated to students pursuing specific majors or careers. In order to find more such scholarships, you might want to consider using Appily or other scholarship search tools, as they aggregate information from numerous sources, helping to streamline your search process.
Lastly, don’t forget about the scholarships provided directly from colleges as well. Many colleges offer diversity scholarships or scholarships for students from underrepresented minorities. Check the financial aid pages on college websites for information on their scholarship offerings.
