Enhance Your College Preparation Programs

Scholarship Learning Company was founded to support the work that educators do with college-bound students. In his two-hour seminar, Jason Lum shows students and parents where to find unadvertised scholarship opportunities, how to complete scholarship forms and gather materials, and what works and what doesn't when competing for scholarship money.

Rarely are students offered the opportunity to learn about scholarships from actual former students who have won large amounts of scholarship money. They are more likely to apply for scholarships if they gain the knowledge of someone who has experienced success.

Seminar Highlights

10 things all scholarship winners know (but never told you about)
Scholarship committees: who they are, what they do and how they choose winners
Interviews: what to expect, how to prepare and why they're important
Why students don't understand student debt
Common myths (or why students think—wrongly—that they can't win scholarships)
Where to find scholarships (hint: it's not in the library or via the Internet)
What a solid letter of recommendation looks like and how to choose recommenders
Why there's more to the activity list than meets the eye
The critical component: why everything hinges on a solid essay

Thanks to your efforts, I'll be heading to Harvard in the fall, and the strategies you taught me have already helped me to win one substantial scholarship. Thank you Jason!

Add SLC to your school curriculum

Let SLC create a program that builds on your college or graduate school preparation classes. We'll develop a course that introduces students to the world of scholarships, fellowships and grants. We teach the different types of funds available, where to locate hard-to-find scholarships, how to develop a winning application and how to plan for the years ahead.

SLC workshops give teachers the tools to promote scholarship applications

We'll share our knowledge with career counselors, academic advisors and other instructors through valuable workshops where they can add to their current curriculum and empower students to take charge of their financial futures.

Why Scholarship Learning Company?

More than fifty colleges, school districts, high schools and other organizations have endorsed or sponsored SLC's seminar program - from administrators at UC Berkeley and Harvard University, to school district administrators in Wayzata and Edina, Minnesota to hundreds of parents and students who have attended the presentations.
