New Latino Scholarship Directory released

14:13 H | Topics: Education - Money

Live in California and need money for college or know someone who does? The Tomás Rivera Policy Institute has just announced a new directory for Latinos looking for college dollars:

The directory, which was originally released in early november 2006, has been viewed online more than 15,000 times and quickly sold out its initial print run.

Now in its second printing, the directory has been expanded to include more than 20 of the largest national scholarship funders, providing millions of dollars of additional scholarship opportunities for California's Latino students.

Printed copies will be distributed through the Sallie Mae Fund's national "paying for college" bus tour, which launches its California tour today. Additional scholarship directories will be distributed by the Tomás Rivera Policy Institute, and by the Hispanic Scholarship Fund at their programs throughout Southern California.

Thanks to reader Cindylu for the tip!
