Scholarship: The Jack Kent Cooke Foundation opened a new college scholarship for high-achieving, lower-income high school seniors who seek to attend the country’s best four-year colleges and universities.

Amount: As many as 40 recipients will be awarded up to $30,000 each year for tuition, books, living expenses and other required fees.
