Scholarships for Scholars

Cubs Scholars

Cubs Scholars are selected among students in Chicago area schools to receive four-year college scholarships. Eligible students must be high school students from Chicago inner-city high schools.

Five students will receive scholarships for four years of college. Eligible students must plan to attend a four-year college or university. In addition to the scholarship, Cubs Scholars will participate in Cubs College Prep in their senior year of high school and into college. They will be mentored by a Cubs Front Office Associate who will guide them through their senior year of high school and help them make the transition into college.

Once Cubs Scholars are in college, they will participate in a one-year college preparation program that will greatly increase their chances of graduating from college. The program includes seminars, workshops and mentoring designed to prepare each student for success in college.

The scholarship is offered by the Chicago Cubs Charities, established in 1986. The non-profit is funded by donations from Cubs fans, corporate partners and players, and fundraising events.

The deadline for this scholarship VARIES each year, and the award amount is usually $20,000.  

No. 8: Don't Be A Recluse--Get Out And Meet People!

Good morning. Today's post is #8 in my series of posts entitled: "10 Things Not To Do After You Arrive On-Campus." I promise to keep this one short and sweet, and #8 is simply to avoid becoming a hermit, loner or unibomber, and get out and meet people. There are literally thousands of students from across the United States, and world entering or attending your college--get out and meet them.

There is no need to stay in your room which is most likely pretty small or compact. So, get outside and meet some of your classmates, and fellow students prior to the start of classes. As a matter of fact, seek out some of the upperclass students, and ask them to share their insights, and provide helpful college advice regarding classes, professors and navigating and adjusting to life on campus.

Sure, your school will eventually provide seminars on these topics at some point after classes begin, but hey, why wait! Get a head start on your success on campus by by taking charge of your own success trajectory. Ask questions . . . talk to someone who knows more than you or your friends . . . as a matter of fact ask lots of questions.
