WHY GO GOLD?
Go Gold for you—not for anyone else! The Gold Award is an
opportunity to set your passions in motion. It’s challenging. It’s
immensely rewarding. And it’s entirely up to you.
Planning to go to college? Some universities and colleges award scholarships to Gold Award Girl Scouts. Visit the GSUSA website for a complete list of scholarships and awards. Reach out to the college and university admissions departments directly for more information and to apply. See the "Gold Award Scholarship" section below for details on scholarships offered by GSHPA.
Considering a military career? Gold Award Girl Scouts are also entitled to enlist at a higher pay grade when they join the military.
Looking to stand out? Girl Scouts of the USA selects ten Gold Award Girl Scouts each year to be National Gold Award Girl Scouts based on their Gold Award projects.
