How to win it

Your personal essay is your strongest tool here, so use it to honestly share how your disability has shaped your journey and why financial support matters for your education. Make sure you clearly self-identify as having a disability in your application, since that is a stated requirement. If you are between 16 and 24, live in El Paso County, and can demonstrate financial need, you meet a very specific set of criteria that will naturally limit the competition, so apply with confidence.
