AXA Achievement Community Scholarship

This scholarship is for current high school seniors who plan to enroll full-time in an accredited two- or four-year college or university in the United States by fall 2015. To qualify for this scholarship, applicants must be ambitious and motivated, as evidenced by outstanding achievement in school, community, or work activities. Special consideration will be given to achievements that empower society to better face risk through education and action in areas such as financial, environmental, health, and/or emergency preparedness. Primary consideration will be given to applicants' non-academic outstanding achievement, such as a long-term achievement, activity, or project that occurred in their school, community, or workplace. Applicants must be US citizens or legal residents living or claiming residency in one of the 50 US states, the District of Columbia, or Puerto Rico. Only the first 10,000 applications will be accepted, so early application is encouraged.

Award: $2500

Deadline: Feb. 1, 2015
