The College Board Opportunity Scholarships program guides students through the college planning process, and simplifies it by laying out the six most important actions on the path to college. Each step that is completed will give students a chance to earn a scholarship, ranging from $500 to $2,000. The program awards $5 million each year to students all across the country, said Lacy Allen, associate director of scholarships for College Board. Students in the class of 2021 have until July 31 to sign up for the first step in the College Board Opportunity Scholarships program. The group also provides free personalized SAT test preparation, free college planning resources and connects students to more than $300 million in scholarships.
