Ascent Launches Second Annual 50 Days of $1,000 Scholarships

Students can trade their “likes” for cash this summer with Ascent

Ascent Funding, LLC, an award-winning, education finance company that gives students more opportunities to pay for college with or without a cosigner, announced the launch of their second annual 50 Days of $1,000 Scholarships. Starting today, students across the U.S. can enter for their chance to win a $1,000 scholarship every weekday through August 10, 2020.

Ascent will post a new scholarship on AscentStudentLoan.com/Scholarship every weekday. To enter for a chance to win, students will be asked to share their feedback on topics ranging from financial wellness, tips to find a job and more on their social channels where students can engage and inspire one another. Students do not need to have an Ascent loan to participate and will have multiple chances to win.

Ascent’s summer scholarship program offers a platform for students to share experiences on their journey to paying for college. Ascent leverages these student insights to improve Ascent’s loans, resources and exclusive student benefits.
