We are really excited to be launching the Backpack Scholarship for families with a student who will be enrolled at a Texas (TX) based institution for the 2024-25 academic year.
The application is simple. We want to hear the stories and sacrifices families have made to save up for their student's education (bonus if you have used a 529 as part of your savings journey!). The application should only take 3-5 minutes!
Enrollment: Enrolled (at least half-time) for 2024-25 academic year
Geography: Texas based Education Institution only
Citizenship Status: U.S. citizen, permanent legal resident, or DACA recipient
Scholarship Use: Can be paid either directly to the Education Institution or deposited into a Backpack account for purchases of qualified education expenses.
By applying to the Backpack Scholarship, you agree to be bound by the
Backpack Scholarship Terms and Conditions.
