Sabrina Kuykendall, a Magna Cum Laude graduate of the University of Oklahoma, has launched the University Bound Grant, a national initiative designed to support high-achieving female students as they transition into four-year accredited universities across the United States.
Grant Details
The University Bound Grant is open to female high school seniors who have secured admission into an accredited four-year college or university in the United States. Applicants must maintain a minimum GPA of 3.0 and show clear intent to pursue a professional career after graduation.
A central requirement of the application process is a 500–750 word essay addressing the prompt: “Reflect on a woman who has influenced your leadership style or career ambitions. How do you plan to embody those qualities during your university years, and how will this grant help you overcome specific barriers to achieving your professional goals?”
The University Bound Grant awards $1,000 to the selected recipient. The application deadline is April 15, 2027, and the winner will be announced on May 15, 2027.
