Grant Overview
Delaware's Scholarships for Underserved Students program faces significant cost constraints, with limited funding available to support scholarships and mentorship programs. The state's high cost of living, combined with limited state funding for education, requires organizations to be efficient and effective in their use of resources. Delaware's small size, with just three counties, allows for a targeted approach to scholarship funding. Unlike neighboring states, Delaware's program prioritizes low-income students and minority communities. ## Cost Constraints in Delaware's Scholarship Program ## The program's budget will be allocated across multiple categories, including scholarships, mentorship, and college preparation workshops. Delaware's cost of living, 12% higher than the national average, requires organizations to be mindful of expenses. The state's strong higher education infrastructure, with institutions like the University of Delaware, will be leveraged to support the program. ## Delaware's Education Landscape ## Delaware's education system faces challenges, including a high dropout rate among minority students. The scholarship program will prioritize students from under-resourced schools, providing them with access to higher education and career opportunities. The state's economic development goals, with a focus on attracting businesses and talent, require a well-educated workforce.
