#AskAScholar: Can I apply if I have not been accepted to school yet?



teampoint

Trent asks:    accepted

 

Am I able to apply for the scholarship before my acceptance into graduate school?

HSBC Point Scholar Kylie Aquino Waddy answers:

Yes, you absolutely can apply and be selected as a Point Scholar before you have been accepted into an undergraduate or graduate school. However, you must be intending to enroll in an accredited undergraduate or graduate program in the fall of 2016 in order to receive funding.

Good luck!

Point Foundation invites perspective applicants to submit questions online about scholarships, community involvement, mentoring, and more. Visit our application page for more information about Point Foundation's Scholarship.
