2024 Ellevation Scholarship
Ellevation will be awarding ten $2,000 scholarships to deserving EL high school seniors who are continuing on to higher education. Since we began our scholarship program in 2018, we have supported dozens of students across the country as they continue their education journey with direct scholarships to the student account of their college or university of choice. This year, the scholarship funds awarded will be able to be used beyond the cost of tuition to assist students in addressing a number of additional financial stressors that arise in the transition to higher education.
