This scholarship exists to reinforce the most enjoyable and meaningful part of life – good friends and relationships. 

Despite how short life is, most people get caught up in the grind. Instead of spending time with the people they love, they focus on the hedonic treadmill of achievement, consistently prioritizing the next achievement at work over enjoyable laughs with friends.

But at the end of your life, what are you going to care about? The extra dollar in the bank account, or the enjoyable moments that you spent with the people you love?

As one small way to encourage everyone to focus on what matters most in life, this scholarship exists to allow you the opportunity for a scholarship that doesn’t waste your time. 

Apply without writing an essay, and go spend the hour you save with a friend or a loved one.

How will scholarship application information be used?

Your privacy is a top priority on the Bold.org platform, and you can find our privacy policy in full here. You may opt out of communications from Bold.org at any time, and unless we’ve first notified you and gotten your consent, you’ll never receive communication from any third parties related to personal information you give us.

When will the scholarship winner be chosen? How will they be notified?

The winner will be publicly announced on Mar 31, 2022. Prior to the announcement date, we may contact finalists with additional questions about their application.

How will the scholarship award be paid?

Award checks will be sent to the financial aid office of the winner's academic institution or future academic institution in their name to be applied to their tuition, and in the name of their institution (depending on the school's requirements). If the award is for a qualified educational non-tuition expense, we will work with the winner directly to distribute the award and make sure it goes towards qualified expenses.

How will my scholarship application be verified?

Before we award the scholarship, the winner will be required to confirm their academic enrollment status. Depending on the circumstances, verification of Student ID and/or their most recent transcript will be required.
