Scholarships

“College scholarships are the bridges to academic and personal growth. “ – Unknown

Since 2020, the Education Over Debt Foundation has awarded $10,000 in scholarships to nine students pursuing higher education. Our scholarship provides financial assistance to students from under-resourced communities, enabling them to pursue higher education without the burden of excessive debt. By alleviating some of the financial pressures associated with higher education, we help these students focus on their studies to achieve their educational goals.
