Two Ten Footwear Foundation Scholarships
Scholarship Sponsored by Two Ten Footwear Foundation
Intro
Are you working in the footwear industry (part- or full-time) and trying to complete a degree or vocational certification? Two Ten can help. Two Ten’s Employee Scholarships provide up to $16,000 total, awarded as $4,000 per year and renewable for as many as four years for students enrolled in accredited associate or bachelor degree programs or vocational/technical training. Awards apply to both part-time and full-time study.
About the Higher Education Scholarships
Two Ten’s Higher Education Scholarships support footwear employees and their family members who are pursuing two- or four-year undergraduate programs, nursing programs, or vocational/technical training. This is a need-based program: financial need is a primary consideration, and selection also takes academic achievement and personal character into account. Eligible applicants may receive up to $4,000 annually, renewable for up to four years of undergraduate study.
Who is eligible
- Enrollment: You must be (or plan to be) enrolled in an accredited associate or bachelor degree program, or in an accredited vocational/technical training program. Graduate students are not eligible.
- Footwear industry employment: You must either be employed in the U.S. footwear industry or be a legal dependent of someone who is. In either case, you must provide documentation showing footwear-industry employment in the U.S. for the most recent 24 months; this may be full- or part-time work.
- Financial need: You must demonstrate financial need via the FAFSA® Student Aid Report (SAR). While selection isn’t based solely on need, Two Ten gives priority to applicants with a Student Aid Index (SAI) under $30,000 as calculated by the FAFSA.
Who should apply
Students currently attending or planning to attend an accredited two- or four-year college, university, nursing program, or vocational/technical school — for either full- or part-time study — are encouraged to apply if they meet the eligibility criteria above.
