How SJ Aspires Works
Through SJ Aspires, students will earn up to $500 in scholarship funds for distribution to the vocational school, community college, college, or university of their choice. Students will earn these funds by completing six online units. By completing the units students will develop the knowledge base and skills necessary to:
- Transition into life after high school.
- Learn about, apply to, and enroll in two-year colleges.
- Learn about, apply to, and enroll in four-year colleges.
- Apply for financial aid.
- Identify career interests and apply for jobs in those fields.
- Learn life skills to help manage their daily lives.
In support of these pursuits, students will also have access to Student’s Rising Above’s Hub—an online community which provides students with additional college and career resources, personalized guidance, and a network of peers.
