What is the Edu Fund Partner Scholarship?
It is a privately funded partner fund for participating church and community schools, and an advisor confirms whether it applies to your school, and on what terms, during your funding check.
Nothing about it is guaranteed, and a school's listing mentions it only where a partnership actually exists. Our advice covers every public and private source whether a school partners with us or not.
