Scholarship Success Training for Pre-College Practitioners
Are you ready to take your program and students to the next level of success with scholarships? Have you tried doing scholarship workshops only to have students ignore your advice? Or worse yet, fall asleep? Don’t worry. Scholarship SuccessSM Training will help you motivate your students, get them on task and give them a competitive edge.
I am Kim Stezala, The Scholarship LadySM, and author of Scholarships 101: The Real-World Guide to Getting Cash for College. I cannot promise or guarantee that your students will win scholarships – that would be unethical because there is no guarantee that anyone will win scholarships. However, I can guarantee that if you come to Scholarship Success training you will learn some new tactics, gain new tools and leave with a jumpstart on preparing your students for scholarship success.

My programs were originally created for first-generation, low-income and under-represented students. Other students find them valuable, too, but TRiO and pre-college program students fare well in Scholarship Success Boot Camp.
What is Scholarship Success Boot Camp? An interactive, motivational youth development seminar – that happens to focus on scholarships. You see, it’s about way more than scholarships. It’s about motivating young people to see the potential in themselves, to invest in themselves, to build a Team of ChampionsSM to understand the facts that affect their ability to win, to delve into family history, and to position them to be the best scholarship candidate they can be. In the process, they build writing, public speaking, teamwork and networking skills.

I’ve been doing scholarship workshops and boot camps for a long time and I love working with youth but…I think that there are some amazing pre-college staff out there who can take my boot camp package and do it themselves – with my training and advice.

What people are saying about Kim and boot camp:
“She’s excellent. I understood a lot and she opened my eyes to scholarships.”- Linda, high school student and Scholarship Success participant
“Thank you for NOT being boring. This information is going to help me get a jumpstart on my future.” -Daniella, high school student and Scholarship Success participant
“Real questions that I needed answered were answered, not generic FAQs which I had answered 50 times before. Different and helpful information that was not provided by counselors or other programs.” - Nadine, high school student and Scholarship Success participant
“Kim Stezala knows the world of scholarships from all angles. With her expert help, thousands of students and families have found the money they need for college. She also has worked closely with scholarship providers to reach talented students who, because their parents never went to college, have no idea what’s out there and how they can qualify.” Ann Coles, Pathways to College Network and TERI
“Teens and parents have thanked our Center for bringing Ms. Stezala in, saying that her boot camps gave them positive goals to work towards and made them feel that college could happen for their family. Personally, it has been a pleasure working with Ms. Stezala. She is professional and kindhearted and truly passionate about helping kids realize their college dreams. She’s a ceaseless body of information and energy and a person you can really talk to. We can’t wait to have her back again!” - Kimberly Schubring, Family & Youth Program Director, Bay View Community Center, Milwaukee, WI
