FOR KENTUCKY STUDENTS

The Migrant Network Coalition is a broad-based coalition of public and private organizations and individuals. Since 1994, we have been collaborating to meet the needs of our diverse immigrant and migrant communities in the state of Kentucky.
 
One important focus of the MNC is our youth. The MNC created the Achieving Dreams Scholarship Program to help immigrant youth access and succeed in higher education. Since 2007, we have awarded a total of $24,550 to immigrant students attending college. There will be a maximum of $1,500 awarded to each scholarship recipient.

This scholarship is for immigrant students who cannot get federal financial aid such as undocumented, DACA or certain refugee and U Visa holders. The application is available each year beginning in March. Check the website for more information.

Open to undocumented and DACA students.

Founded in 1975, the Hispanic Scholarship Fund empowers Latino families with the knowledge and resources to successfully complete a higher education, while providing scholarships and support services to as many exceptional Hispanic American students as possible. HSF strives to make college education a top priority for every Latino family across the nation, mobilizing our community to proactively advance that goal - each individual, over a lifetime, in every way he/she can.

HSF also seeks to give its Scholars all the tools they need to do well in their course work, graduate, enter a profession, excel, help lead our nation going forward, and mentor the generations to come. As the nation's largest not-for-profit organization supporting Hispanic American higher education, HSF has awarded over $500 million in scholarships and provides a range of impactful programs for students, HSF Scholars, Alumni, and parents.
