Alpha Sigma Lambda Honor Society is committed to supporting adult learners access to higher education by awarding scholarships each year.

Many university scholarship programs are not oriented toward adult students, forcing adult learners to seek out loans, or are often forced to work multiple jobs so that they can provide for their families while pursuing their degrees.

That is why ASLHS is committed to helping adult students achieve their dreams and awards scholarships to adult learners who have a financial need for assistance to complete their degrees.
