Jackie Robinson Scholarship

Financial Aid/Scholarships

Hi, I am a current senior in high school applying for a few scholarships.

My family wants me to apply to the Jackie Robinson scholarship - my dad got it in his senior year and it helped out a bunch. When my dad applied, his family was “high income” but he also was the oldest of 5 and still ended up getting the scholarship.

I think I have a very strong profile, and I meet all of the criteria besides “presenting evidence of financial need.” My family is “high income” but I am the middle of 5 and there will be 3 kids in college at once. I want to attend a top school, but my family would most likely not be able to afford it as I would be unlikely to get scholarships directly from the school. Do I still qualify for the scholarship?
