Minority Psychology Scholarships

According to The College Board, the average cost of tuition was $7,000 in 2009, about $300 to $400 more than 2008. Even with the rising costs of attending college, minority psychology students can take advantage of several scholarships to meet their financial needs. Minority psychology scholarships are awarded based on a combination of merit and financial need.
