Established in 2007, the College Bound Scholarship (CBS) is an early commitment of state funding intended to improve high school graduation, college enrollment, and completion rates for low-income students. The program provides awareness of available grant funding designed to alleviate financial barriers that prevent low-income students from considering college.1 As of Fall 2021, students are automatically enrolled in CBS if they attend a public school and are eligible for free and reduced-price lunch (FRPL) in 7th or 8th grade, or newly eligible in 9th grade. Foster youth, or any youth who is a dependent of the state between 7th grade and high school graduation, are automatically enrolled. Private school and homeschool students can also apply.
