The Balkhi Foundation Higher Education Scholarship seeks to help talented young people make college more attainable. These awards are granted to exceptional high school seniors accepted to a US based college or university who demonstrate a financial need. An ideal applicant for a Balkhi Foundation Scholarship is a student who has shown dedication to their academics as well as their personal goals whether that is through community service, creation of a business or invention, or significant dedication to academic pursuits. Applicants must submit the contact information (including email address) for two teachers that can speak to their academic achievement. They must also submit their acceptance letter to their chosen college or university if they are selected as a finalist. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
