YFL Scholarship Essay Contest

Open to high school seniors and first-year college/university students, YFL’s annual scholarship essay contest endeavors to foster financial knowledge and understanding among the rising generations while also helping defray the cost of higher education.

Scholarships are awarded based on a financial literacy quiz and an original essay about a personal finance related topic submitted by qualifying participants.

The contest is YFL’s way of encouraging young adults to learn and implement the money management skills necessary for both personal and professional success, while also alleviating the cost of college and university tuition for our finalists.

Due to the current economic climate, YFL anticipates re-opening the essay contest sometime in academic year 2024-25. Please check back for updates.
