Xero Trust Cyber Scholarship
Technology has a transformative power for addressing specific needs, both in daily life and in specific industries.
Unfortunately, tech is a notoriously inaccessible field that often requires significant financial resources to enter and pursue. As a result, the positive changes and innovations possible through tech are limited due to a lack of diverse perspectives in the field.
This scholarship seeks to support students who are passionate about pursuing tech in order to make positive contributions to the world.
Any high school senior (2024) who has a passion for using technological tools and solutions to enhance daily activities may apply for this scholarship opportunity, but those who belong to underrepresented groups within their academic and professional communities are preferred, as are first-generation college students and those with community service or volunteering experience.
To apply, tell us how you use technology to be innovative in your field of study.
