Debt Free-Degrees

Let’s support Hands On Atlanta and Scholars Academy as digital volunteers! The Scholarship Academy (TSA), a nonprofit founded by a recipient of over $200,000 in scholarships, teaches low- income and first-generation high school students how to create realistic college funding strategies. Through in-school curriculum modules, financial aid counselor trainings, and access to an innovative scholarship planning platform, The Virtual Scholarship Center, we connect students to local/state-based scholarship resources that enable them to pursue debt-free degrees.

How does this work?

1. Students sign up for virtual office hours via their virtual scholarship center account
2. Based on availability and interest, volunteers (you) will help students:
   • Understand their Financial Award Letter
   • Identify additional private aid
   • Re-negotiate their financial aid packages
   • Edit scholarship essays
