What the sponsor says
Bright Futures
The Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program is for Florida high school graduates. Seniors should apply during their 12th grade year once the application is available. It is helpful to ensure the intended institution accepts Florida Bright Futures, as some private institutions do not. Students must APPLY for the scholarship by submitting the Florida Financial Aid Application (FFAA) no later than August 31 after high school graduation.
Students are strongly encouraged to complete the FFAA even if eligibility requirements have not yet been satisfied, they will be attending an out-of-state postsecondary institution, or are considering entering the military. Deferment and reinstatement options are available. However, if a student does not apply for the scholarship by the deadline, a student cannot receive the scholarship, even if their post-secondary plans change!
Bright Futures offers multiple scholarship options:

Our read on this award
3 figures we worked out, not the sponsor's. Free, and it takes an email address.
How these are worked out
- Our grade. From three facts the sponsor published. How few can apply: one high school or city 3 points, a county 2, the state 1, the whole country 0. How much it pays: $10,000 or more, or at least half of tuition, 3; $2,500 or more 2; $1,000 or more 1. Paid again in later years: 1. A is 4 points or more, B 3, C 2, D 0 or 1.
- How narrow the field is. Read from where the sponsor restricts it. An award open to one high school is competing against a graduating class.
- Conditions to meet. The conditions the sponsor published, each listed under Who can apply. More conditions means a smaller field, which is good news if you meet them.
- None of it is a chance of winning. We do not know how many people apply or how a sponsor chooses, so we do not publish a percentage. Anyone who does is guessing.
