A+ Scholarship

The A+ Scholarship Program provides scholarship funds to eligible graduates of Lindbergh High School who attend a participating public community college or vocational/technical school, or certain private two-year vocational/technical schools. The scholarship will reimburse the unpaid balance of a student's tuition and general fees after all available, non-loan federal financial assistance has been applied to the student's account.

Eligibility Requirements

  • Student must be a U.S. citizen, eligible non-citizen or lawfully present in the United States

  • Must have achieved a score of 'proficient' or 'advanced' on the Algebra 1 end-of-course exam

If a student meets all of the eligibility requirements except the end-of-course exam score, they may establish eligibility by achieving a combined ACT math subscore and high school GPA. The student may achieve the qualifying score as a high school or postsecondary student. If the score is achieved as a postsecondary student, the student may be eligible for an award in the same term that the test is taken.
