Glow Foundation Unmet Need Scholarship

Name: The Glow Foundation Unmet Need Scholarship

Award Amount: Varies

Information And Eligibility:
The Glow Foundation Unmet Need Scholarship supports low-income, motivated college students who face financial gaps that remain even after grants, federal aid, loans, and other funding sources have been applied. The scholarship is designed to help bridge that final financial shortfall—known as “unmet need”—so students can successfully begin or continue their higher education without interruption. Beyond monetary assistance, the Glow Foundation provides selected students with educational resources, individualized mentoring, and ongoing support designed to improve long-term financial wellness and academic success.

Applicants must meet the eligibility guidelines established by the Glow Foundation, which include attending one of the organization’s College Financial Aid Workshops. These workshops are designed to help students understand financial aid processes, budgeting, and effective planning for college expenses. Only students who complete this requirement are eligible to apply for the scholarship.

Awards are tailored to the student’s remaining financial need after all other aid has been exhausted. The scholarship may be renewed for up to four years for students attending a four-year college or up to two years for students attending community colleges or similar two-year institutions. This renewable structure ensures stable, consistent support as long as recipients remain eligible and continue to demonstrate financial need and academic progress.

• Must be a low-income student with demonstrated unmet financial need after all other funding sources have been applied.
• Must attend a Glow Foundation College Financial Aid Workshop prior to applying.
