Washington, D.C. — High school seniors in the class of 2014 still have time to apply for scholarships offered by the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) Young Entrepreneur Foundation. The new deadline for applications is Jan. 6, 2014.
The NFIB Young Entrepreneur program was established to raise awareness among the nation’s youth of the critical role that private enterprise and entrepreneurship play in the building of America.
Applicants for the NFIB Young Entrepreneur Awards must be graduating high school seniors who are entering their freshman year at an accredited two-or four-year university, college, technical or vocational institute in the fall of 2014. They must also demonstrate entrepreneurial spirit and initiative by having established a business of their own. Scholarships are merit-based, not based on financial need.
The NFIB Young Entrepreneur Foundation is committed to educating young people about the critical role of small business and the American free enterprise system. More information about the YEF scholarship program and past recipients is available at:http://www.NFIB.com/YEF
