Ordinary, on the surface, people can do extraordinary things when others have high expectations of the so called “ordinary student,” not a superstar. The purpose of the Expectative Scholarship is to encourage and partially support an African American high school graduate who has been accepted to an accredited four-year college.
Eligible applicants:
- Live or attended high school in Manhattan or was in foster care or in a shelter for more than three months in New York City.
- Cumulative high school average of 80 or better.
- Must have applied and been accepted to a four-year accredited college.
