What are the details about the new College Board scholarship?

I heard there's a new scholarship from the College Board that's not just for high achievers, which sounds awesome. Does anyone know what the scholarship requirements are and how to apply? Is it too late to start?

The scholarship you're referring to is likely the College Board Opportunity Scholarships program. This program is designed to help guide students through the college admissions process and offers them a chance to earn money for college at every step along the way.

There are six key steps to earning an Opportunity Scholarship:

1. Build Your College List: Students get started by exploring colleges they're interested in.

2. Practice for the SAT: Students use Official SAT Practice on Khan Academy to get ready for test day.

3. Explore Scholarships: Understand more about scholarships you're eligible for.

4. Strengthen Your College List: Students refine, finalize and share their college list online.

5. Complete the FAFSA: They fill out the free government form to apply for financial aid.

6. Apply to Colleges: Apply to 2 or more colleges you want to attend.

Each step will earn you a chance to win scholarships that range in value from $500 to $2,000. Completing all six steps will render you eligible for a $40,000 scholarship.

The program is open to high school juniors and seniors in the U.S., Puerto Rico, and U.S. territories, regardless of GPA. As for deadlines, they differ for each of the six steps, so the best way to keep track of application windows and requirements is by visiting the College Board's scholarship page where they provide specifics for each step.

Remember, it's never too late to start working towards these scholarships. Just make sure to check out the respective deadlines of each step so you're timely in your participation. Good luck!
