Are you in DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America) in high school? Now you can begin earning college scholarships for your participation in deca as early as the 9th grade, even if you don't plan to pursue it in college. Seattle University, California Lutheran University, Southwestern University and 265 other colleges offer up to $6,000 in scholarships for every year of deca. Plus, if you're in a leadership role, you may be eligible for an extra scholarship of up to $3,375 per year!

Unlike other scholarships for deca members, micro-scholarships don't involve an application, essay, or selection process. They are awarded in your aid package if you enroll at that college.

Here are just some of the colleges and universities offering scholarships for high schoolers participating in deca. See more colleges, and earn micro-scholarships for everything from grades to volunteering in your community, by signing up for a free RaiseMe account.
