For students who reside in Missouri this scholarship is worth looking in to. It is awarded to top students in Missouri who plan to attend college in Missouri.

Caution: Should you have a "Bright" student who wins this award but elects to attend an out-of-state college, the Scholarship is forfeited! Even though Washington University awarded my daughter this award as a transferring sophmore, the state took it away from her. She was only one of five students in her senior class (2003) who received this award.

If you live in Missouri, and meet the requirements, there is no reason not to take advantage of such an opportunity. Free money is never a bad thing.

For those who can attain it, this can be a very helpful scholarship. Unfortunately, it now only covers about one-third of the cost of tuition at the University of Missouri, though there is currently (spring 2006) legislation filed to increase the award amount to about two-thirds of the tuition price.
