The Gutierrez Law Firm believes in helping our clients overcome hardships. First-generation college students can face obstacles in pursuit of dreams. Since they are the first of their family to attend college, it can be challenging to navigate the world of higher education, from selecting the right school and major to paying tuition. We are inspired by those who did not get discouraged and overcame these hardships. Therefore we are proud to announce our First of Us Scholarship!
Being a first-generation college student can come with many responsibilities and obstacles. Some students may face academic, financial, psychological, and social barriers that make pursuing a college education challenging.
We have created the First of Us Scholarship for first-generation college students to share their experiences of facing and overcoming hardships as the first in their families to pursue higher education. This is a $1,000 scholarship opportunity. We will be accepting applications until August 31, 2023. Please continue reading for more detail on the application process.
Gutierrez Law Firm will choose the recipient of the First of Us Scholarship during the month following the deadline.
