The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities has announced applications for the 21st annual ¡Lánzate!/Take Off! Higher Education Travel Award Program are now open. Since 2004, this signature program administered by HACU has awarded Southwest Airlines® tickets to students pursuing higher education (undergraduate and graduate) to help them stay connected with their families and communities.

This program helps make higher education more accessible by supporting college students with the greatest need to stay connected to home and school. Eligibility requirements include being enrolled at a college/university located at least 200 miles from a student’s home and the submission of required essays.
