Dedicated to promoting the enrollment and retention of students from historically underrepresented groups, NECBAC is awarding book scholarships to students from historically underrepresented groups who live in the Northeast, are graduating from a high school in the Northeast, and will be enrolling full-time to a NECBAC member institution. In order to be considered for this scholarship, applicants must submit an official application, which includes a copy of the applicant’s official or unofficial high school transcript.
