The Scholarship
Who we are
The Meeting Street Scholarship Fund is a privately funded scholarship that helps hard-working students pay for college without taking on significant debt.
High-achieving students with demonstrated financial need who maximize state and federal scholarships and financial aid still owe more than $10,000 annually on average for college tuition, housing, food and fees.
Our Scholarship covers that gap, eliminates the need for burdensome student loans and enables students to pursue college dreams.
