Ready to make the most of your scholarship journey? We've got two powerful tools to help you do just that. Wondering where to find these great resources? Well, wonder no more. There are two quick ways to find them. You can either explore the Parent Handbook and Purchasing Guide directly from your scholarship's main page or by clicking the Resources tab at the top of our homepage. Lets start by hovering over the Scholarship tab and then moving your cursor over to the Parent Resources section. You'll find lots of other useful resources. Click on Program Handbooks to enter the Family Handbooks page. Here you'll find our collection of family handbooks as well as the summary of handbook updates. Clicking on a handbook provides you with the option to either delve into its content or bookmark it for later use. To download your own copy, simply click the Save icon located at the top right corner of the page. Scroll down to access the Table of Contents. Looking for something specific? Just tap any line in the Table of Contents to jump straight to that section. It's quick and works on every parent handbook. Now let's take a look at the purchasing guides. To find them, let's head back to the Home page. From there, hover over the Scholarship tab to access the Parent resources. Click on Purchasing Guides. You've now made it to the Purchasing Guide main page. Choose the guide that fits your scholarship needs and make sure to also check out the link to the Summary of Changes. Now that you're inside a Purchasing guide, finding what you need is a breeze. Just scroll down to the Table of Contents to jump to any section, or use the search icon at the top of the page to quickly look up keywords. And remember, you can always save or print the guides as you scroll through the Table of Contents within the guides. Don't forget to check out the Appendix section at the bottom of the guides. It's packed with extra details, definitions, and helpful tips that can make a big difference when planning your purchases. One key item we'd like to highlight found within the Appendix, is the Authorized Uses of Scholarship Funds Chart. The Authorized Uses of Scholarship Funds chart is a key resource designed to help families understand exactly how scholarship funds can be used. We hope this brief video has been a helpful guide in navigating the program handbooks and purchasing guides. As always, Step up for Students is committed to supporting you throughout every step of your scholarship journey.
