| 6/22/26 | ![]() Parents Still Matter in the Scholarship Process + 6 Scholarships | When families begin the scholarship journey, many parents assume there are only two options: Top of Form Bottom of Form Either parents take over the process completely, or they step back and let students handle everything on their own. Neither approach works very well. The most successful scholarship families usually find a healthier balance... ---------- Student Loan Rates Drop! Last Monday, one of Scholarship GPS’s partner organizations, Juno, saw a significant rate drop for undergraduate loans on Juno’s platform. Juno leverages collective bargaining to negotiate lower student loans. After receiving input from families, they shared feedback with their partner lenders who then lowered rates compared to previous weeks. For many people who need to borrow for college, rates may now be lower. If you’ve completed a rate check before, it is worthwhile to do it again. We don’t know how long these rates will last, and are encouraging families to lock in a rate now. After completing a rate check, if you submit a full application and are approved, your rates are generally locked for 30 days. You can check your rates by clicking here. ---------- Featured Scholarships: $1000 Public by Default Scholarship Maschka Personal Injury $1000 Safety Advocate Scholarship $1000 Jeanne Murphy Scholarship: Compassion in Action $1000 “Commencing at Community College” Essay Scholarship $1000 No Essay Scholarship by Sallie $2026 ScholarshipOwl No Essay Scholarship ---------- Free Resource: Click here to download our list of recommended scholarship websites. ---------- Click here to learn more about the Scholarship Navigator program. | 11m 35s | ||||||
