College – U. Got It?

Welcome to The CollegeBound Network

BET Networks and Sallie Mae Join Forces

cbnetwork | June 25, 2008

Having limited financial access should never be a reason to stop living your dream of attending a college or university. Growing up in an environment where you feel helpless shouldn’t either. BET Networks and the Sallie Mae Fund recently joined together to offer assistance to these students through what is known as the “Next Level” Scholarship Program.

BET logoThe scholarship was open to African-American high school juniors and seniors who had overcame obstacles to realize their dream of a college education. The Sallie Mae Fund issued a press release on June 16, 2008 announcing the four winners, who combined received $25,000 in scholarship money. These four have dealt with so much in such a short lifetime. From issues with domestic violence to medical disabilities, these are some students anyone can look up to and admire.
