Common questions

Who is eligible to apply?

Students in Honduras who have finished (or are finishing) high school, who demonstrate real financial need, and who are ready to commit to a university or technical program. Academic promise matters, but character, perseverance, and a willingness to partner with us matter just as much.

How much does a scholarship cover?

Awards vary by student and program. A scholarship typically helps with tuition, books, fees, and transportation. No one receives a completely free ride — every student contributes something, because partnership protects dignity.

What documents do I need to apply?

Your most recent transcript or grade report, an identity document, a photo, and — if you already have one — your university acceptance letter. You can upload these directly in the application form.

When will I hear back?

We review applications as they arrive and follow up by email or WhatsApp. If we need more information or want to schedule a conversation, we will contact you using the details you provide.

What is expected of me once I receive a scholarship?

Keep your grades up, submit a short progress update and your receipts each month, stay in contact with your mentor, and let us know early when something is going wrong. We would much rather help than be surprised.
