Scholarships for Juniors
From the College Board
The College Board Opportunity Scholarships program is now available for all juniors. Students and families are invited to watch this video to learn about the program.
- Since 2018, nearly one million students have joined this
program, which provides students with a digital college planning
guide and chances to earn $500 for each action they
complete.
- When students complete all six steps, they earn a chance at
a $40,000
scholarship.
- Students whose families earn less than $60,000 per year have double the chances to earn scholarships.
High school juniors can visit cb.org/opportunity to join. This year, the program is introducing some changes:
-
More Winners: Starting with the class of
2022, the program will recognize even more students. More
than 7,000 students will earn a scholarship each year, nearly
double the number of winners recognized in previous
years.
-
New Explore Scholarships Step: There is
a new
step to help students find other scholarships that may
be a good fit for them. Students can earn chances at $500
scholarships by exploring a personalized list of scholarships
and other aid on College Board Scholarship
Search.
- Practice for the SAT Step: This simplified step guides students to get started with personalized skill recommendations, a best practice behavior associated with higher score gains. Students can become eligible for $500 scholarships by completing one Timed Mini Section or one Diagnostic Quiz on Official SAT Practice on Khan Academy.
