Housing scholarship opportunities are now available for high school students in the local area through the Southern Scholarship Foundation (SSF). Students who are planning to attend Florida A&M University, Florida Gulf Coast University, Florida State University, Santa Fe College, Tallahassee State College or the University of Florida are eligible for this unique opportunity. The scholarship allows students to focus on their studies while not stressing about the bills that come with renting an apartment or dormitory on campus. Students attending the schools mentioned can apply for the scholarship by going to www.southernscholarship.org/how-to-apply, emailing the SSF at admissions@southernscholarship.org, or calling (850) 222-3833. Students needing additional assistance may contact their graduation coach or guidance counselor.
