Houston Texans Cornerback Alex Austin's Overcoming Adversity Scholarship

Dollar Amount: Up to $5,000
Deadline: April 15th, 2024
Sponsor: Access Scholarships and Alex Austin
Award Type: Scholarship Money
Posted By: Reginald Claremont on 11/08/2023

  
Alex Austin, Long Beach native, ex-defensive back for the Oregon State University Beavers, and current cornerback for the Houston Texans is no stranger to overcoming adversity.

"This scholarship is important to me because I know that everyone battles with adversity at some point in their life. I myself had to overcome adversity to get me to where I am today. This is why I want to give back to students who have shown resilience in overcoming their own challenges."

Once again, Alex is partnering with Access Scholarships to do exactly that! 5 scholarships (each worth $1,000) will be awarded to students who have overcome hardship throughout their lives.

High school and undergraduate students of all years are encouraged to apply. Special consideration will be given to minority students, as well as students who are or will be the first in their family to attend college.

Total amount: $5,000

Number of awards: 5

Breakdown of awards: (5) $1,000

Deadline: April 15, 2024

Winners announced: by May 15, 2024

Open to: High school & undergraduate students
