Attention CNJJ High School Seniors

Thank you for your interest in the California New Journey's AIM Scholarship Program. This initiative, powered by our Jurisdictional AIM Convention, brings together five dynamic departments: Music, Youth, Sunday School, Missions, and Evangelism. Our scholarships are designed to empower graduating high school students, fueling their journey as they step into higher education, whether it's college, technical school, or vocational institute.

Did you know? In 2021-2022, first-year undergraduates typically faced a $1,000-$1,250 expense for books and supplies. That's where we step in – our mission is to support CNJJ High School students as they venture into the exciting realm of learning, paving their paths toward fulfilling careers and educational milestones.
