SAN DIEGO, Oct. 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ascent Funding, a leader in outcomes-based lending and student success, launched a contest that will pay you to pursue your dreams. One lucky winner will receive $10,000.
The national contest encourages students from all majors and disciplines to dream big and allows Ascent to support the pursuit of their ambitions. Whether the dream is a life-changing educational experience, starting a business, or creating something that gives back to their community, Ascent wants to help make one lucky student’s dream a reality.
“Ascent has always been a partner in a student’s journey to success during school and after graduation. Today’s students are ambitious and aren’t waiting until after graduation to make their mark in the world,” said Ken Ruggiero, CEO of Ascent. “We’re dedicated to helping students succeed in every way we can and look forward to being a part of the future they create.”
