Navcap Network's Mentor Collective — Capacity Building Workshops & Training

Did you know that the average US student loan debt is $32,731? 

Yes, you read that right. Yikes!

​

​

Paying for college is the number one worry for parents and students attending university. With the average tuition costs across the United States being $9,687 (in-state), $21,184 (out-of-state), and $35,087 (private), it’s no wonder. 

But did you know there are over 40 billion dollars of scholarship money out there ready for you to grab? 

Here at Minorities to Majorities, we hold training workshops that teach students about scholarship opportunities and give them the tools they need to obtain that money.

​

What Do Our Workshops Teach?

​

We help you find free money. How?

Our workshops train students, parents, and educators on how to discover grants, scholarships, and financial opportunities. We’ve landed over $400,000 in aid for our students, and we’re here to help you. 

✓ Scholarships Applications – Learn how to write competitive scholarship applications where you stand out from the stack.

✓ Financial Management – Gain budgeting skills that will help you control your money during university so you graduate financially ahead.
