To enroll in the 21st Century Scholars program, you must:
• Be a resident of Indiana as an applicant and as a scholarship recipient (determined by the residency of your parent or legal guardian).
• Be a US citizen or an eligible non-citizen.
• Be enrolled in the 7th or 8th grade at a charter school, freeway school or other Indiana school accredited by the Indiana Department of Education.

Throughout high school, students in the program will need to complete various activities each year to help students stay on track for college and career success.
