Award: Varies
Award Period: Opens August 2024 | Deadline: September 16, 2024 | Download or Online Application
Selection Process and Award
Successful candidates are selected on the basis of academic achievement, personal strengths, leadership, financial need and commitment to giving back to the community. All completed applications are evaluated by BSFI board members. Once they have been reviewed, we begin our rigorous process of selection.
Unfortunately, every year, the applications we receive from deserving students greatly outnumber the awards we have available. Accordingly, selection is highly competitive and not every strong student will make the final cut.
It’s also important to remember that if your application is incomplete, you will not be considered for a scholarship. Many bright students miss out on opportunities because they submit incomplete applications. **It is important that the information an applicant provides regarding his/her intended school/major be as up to date as possible, prior to our selection process.
Eligibility & Requirements
**Excluding graduating seniors, A&M undergraduate students may re-apply as long as they meet all eligibility requirements. Graduate students are not eligible to apply.
A complete application will include the following:
1. A complete BSFI Scholarship Application with transcript and completed essay questions attached.
2. Eligible Freshman must provide a High School Transcript.
3. Two (2) Letters of Recommendation including at least one (1) educational reference and one (1) community service reference.
