Scholarship Opportunity for Gap Year Students
Looking to take a gap year and need some financial support? The Gap Year Association (GYA) has just opened applications for two exciting scholarship opportunities during this year's Gap Year Exploration Month:
💰 Sustainability Scholarship 💰
GYA is offering a new Gap Year Sustainability Scholarship to support students interested in pursuing meaningful, sustainable projects during their gap year. Through their Experiential Challenge campaign, they’ve already raised $13,025, with $1,303 of that going directly to the scholarship fund. You can help increase this fund by visiting their campaign page and supporting various challenges.
🎒 Tortuga Scholarship 🎒
Planning a gap year for 2025? Tortuga Backpacks is sponsoring a $2,500 scholarship, along with a free Tortuga Travel Backpack, for one lucky student.
📅 Applications
Both scholarships will be open throughout October as part of Gap Year Exploration Month. Visit GYA’s Financial Assistance page for more details for these scholarships and MANY more. Don't miss out on this opportunity to fund your gap year adventures!
