Students interested in applying for the Parent/Child Scholarship from the League of United Latin American Citizens Rey Feo de la Feria de las Flores need to submit their applications by April 30.
The LULAC scholarship is offered through the women's center.
The LULAC scholarship committee donates $25,000 each year, and 25 participants are accepted each year.
To be eligible, students must be a parent and have only one child 6-years-old or younger and be willing to enroll in the fall semester at any college in the Alamo Community College District.
The applicant must have completed a four-hour parenting class and have completed a Free Application for Federal Student Aid.
Bertha Castellanos, student service assistant for the Parent/Child Program, said participants who are accepted will receive $1,000 scholarships provided by the Alamo Community College District Foundation for two years.
The participant must receive a certificate, associate's degree or transfer to a university.
Once the participant completes that goal, their child will receive a scholarship to any college in the district when the child graduates from high school.
"Students have to complete an educational goal, and once they do, their child will receive two-year tuition."
Students can access the application at http://www.accd.edu/SAC/students/wc.htm.
For more information, call Castellanos at 733-2299 or stop by the women's center.
