The Robert P. and Sally G. Sands Fifteen to Finish Scholarship
The Fifteen to Finish Scholarship was established in 2017 for new Howard University students to complete college on time and without debt. Created by Sally G. Sands, a retired schoolteacher, and her husband, Robert P. Sands, a retired lawyer, the scholarship is applicable to residents of California, Missouri and Minnesota. Students are expected to register for at least 15 credit hours each semester in order to graduate within four years and receive $20,000 a year.
The scholarship is student-centered and developed around the idea of providing cohort support. High-achieving, first-generation and/or limited-income students are eligible for the scholarship. They benefit from and receive community support and enrichment, programming with a group cohort and advisers, career development, and group engagement from scholar peers and staff advisers through the Center for Honors and Scholar Development.
To receive information on applying to the Sands Scholars Program in the future, please contact Theon GruberFord at theon.t.gruber@howard.edu. Interested in contributing to the Fifteen to Finish Scholarship? Visit giving.howard.edu/give/sands.
