About this award

You get $500. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you have graduated from high school in the Bahamas and need financial help to afford your studies. You must apply by November 1, 2026. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Holland College lists this award's criteria on its official page (see Who qualifies). Ask Holland College how winners are picked among the students who meet them and how many usually apply, so you can judge your odds. Ask Holland College during your application how the money will reach you — some awards pay students directly, others apply funds to tuition. Confirm this so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Holland College whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

RealismAvoid assuming this award will cover all your costs. Instead, treat this $500 as a helpful supplement while you apply for other grants and loans. Build a full budget that includes multiple funding sources.
