Southern Scholarship Foundation provides scholarship opportunities for students attending or planning to attend: Florida State University, Florida A & M University, University of Florida, Florida Gulf Coast University, Tallahassee Community College, and Santa Fe College
SSF provides rent-free scholarship housing for qualified students demonstrating academic achievement (with a minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA), financial need (as identified on the FAFSA), and good character. With our scholarship, students save $10,000 – $12,000 per year.
We have 26 scholarship houses throughout the state of Florida and are looking to extend our recruitment efforts. For Fall 2016, we are expecting to award roughly 150 scholarships (over 1 million dollars in scholarships) for our scholarships houses.
We have attached our recruitment flyer in hopes that you can share it with any eligible students you may know.
We accept applications year-round… The sooner students submit a completed application, the better! Please spread the word to students, department chairs, co-workers, etc.

Our read on this award
4 figures we worked out, not the sponsor's. Free, and it takes an email address.
- Awards given each year
- 150 (the sponsor's number)
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.
- Value for the effort. The published amount divided by the 45 minutes the sponsor's own requirements take.
- 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 We do not know how many people apply or how a sponsor chooses, so we do not publish a percentage.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.
