blog home SLS News Announcing Our 2026 Emerging Influencers College Scholarships

SLS Consulting, Inc. is proud to announce our 2026 Emerging Influencers Scholarships, an opportunity designed to support students across the country who are driven to create meaningful, positive change in their communities. We will be awarding two scholarships in the amount of $1,000 each to help students pursue their educational goals and continue developing as the leaders of tomorrow.

SLS Consulting, Inc. is a full-service digital legal marketing agency that’s been helping law firms secure actionable leads for over twenty-five years. Founder Susan Ziegler is grateful for the success our firm has enjoyed, and we welcome the opportunity to pay it forward. We believe that investing in education is one of the most impactful ways to strengthen communities and empower future innovators, problem-solvers, and changemakers.

Who Is Eligible to Apply?

The 2026 Emerging Influencers Scholarships are open to students nationwide. Eligible applicants include:

• High school seniors who plan to enroll in college
• Current college students
• Community college students who intend to transfer to a four-year institution

Students of all majors are encouraged to apply. Whether you are pursuing a degree in business, healthcare, education, technology, public service, the arts, or any other field, we want to hear from you. What matters most is your desire to use your education to make a positive impact on society.

The Value of a Four-Year Degree

We understand that today’s students face many challenges. Rising tuition costs, balancing coursework with employment, and navigating an increasingly competitive job market makes seeking a four-year degree a daunting challenge. But it is still a rewarding and transformative goal.

A college degree provides more than academic instruction. It offers the opportunity to learn critical thinking skills, develop professional capabilities, and build lasting relationships with a diverse group of peers and mentors. College can be a time of tremendous personal growth, where students refine their values, explore new perspectives, and discover their passion. For many, it also serves as a gateway to an exciting and fulfilling career.

At SLS Consulting, Inc., we believe in supporting students who are committed to using these opportunities not only for personal advancement but also for the greater good.
