Attention High School Seniors!

Award

To give back to the community, Earnest launched a scholarship fund that will help students take on less debt. For every student loan we refinance, we put a percentage of our profits towards the scholarship fund.

The Earnest Spring Scholarship Fund awards $5,000 to 10 deserving students. There are no essays to write and no fees, to ensure every student has the opportunity to enter the scholarship. Participation constitutes the entrant’s full and unconditional agreement to these Official Rules and Sponsor/Administrator’s decisions, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Sweepstakes. Receiving a scholarship prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein. Noncompliance with any of the eligibility requirements will result in disqualification.

To apply for The Earnest Scholarship, applicants MUST satisfy the following eligibility criteria:

- Applicant must be a legal resident of and physically located within the 50 United States or the District of Columbia.
- Applicants must be pursuing a Bachelor’s or Graduate degree, enrolled full-time at a not-for-profit, 4-year Title IV accredited U.S. college or university for the Spring of 2022 at the time of notification and will be required to provide proof of enrollment.

(the “Administrator”) (collectively “Released Parties”) and if their immediate family members (spouse, parent, sibling, grandparent, and children, regardless of where they live) and persons residing in the households of such persons. (Void wherever prohibited or restricted by law.)

Winners will be notified in March 2022. Until then, share the scholarship with friends!
