SCHOLARSHIPS

Triple Threat Education Scholarship is awarded to recently graduated High School seniors, who are entering their freshman year in college. Individuals will be awarded according to need and their demonstration of leadership, community impact and excellence in academics and athletics during 2016-2022 school years. T3 Mentoring recognizes that in light of the global pandemic many graduating seniors from 2020-2021 had to take a year off and are just now ready to start their college journey.

This scholarship is awarded to participants who have been recognized and complete our T3 Mentoring Scholarship application and essay, who highly demonstrate continual growth and success in Academics, Athletics and Attitude.
