Carolina,
LMSA requires a $50 membership fee that will block out my College Track students. I am always looking for pre-med and med school scholarships.
Thank you all your great work.
Cynthia
Cynthia, you’ve probably already asked about this, but I am wondering if LMSA makes exceptions regarding the $50 membership fee for low-income students?
