The Latino Education Institute assists Latino students in Central Massachusetts access and succeed in obtaining higher education. Our experience indicates that financial limitations are too often a barrier to achieving this goal. Part of our college access work includes matching resources to the needs of our students. Scholarships on the internet can seem overwhelming at times. To assist students, parents, and educators in their search for information, we have compiled the following three lists, using in great part source material from the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and local sources.
