Simon Scholars Details
The Simon Scholars Program was created to enable students facing difficult life and economic circumstances to graduate from high school with enhanced self esteem and self confidence and then to provide the means by which these students can earn a bachelor's degree in their quest to become productive, independent and self sufficient individuals in their pursuit of the American dream. The Simon Scholars Program is unique and highly successful. It offers much more than tuition for college. It reaches into the lives of promising high school students most in need of support and equips them to succeed, inside the classroom and out, in college and beyond.
