Why Apply? 2023/24
Scholarships provide financial support for students to help pay for a college degree. These funds enable students to obtain education they may not have had access to otherwise. UNICO believes that Scholarships go further than just being financial aid for many students, they reward deserving students with the ability to afford higher education and give those students a sense of accomplishment for a job well done. They are a reward for past struggles that will help brighten their future endeavors.
