Dollars For Scholars

Collegiate Partners
Collegiate Partners are postsecondary institutions that support the ongoing work of Scholarship America and the Dollars for Scholars program. Any Scholarship America scholarship—whether from a Dollars for Scholars chapter or a corporate program—brought to these campuses are used first to fill any unmet student need. If there is no unmet need, these institutions will use up to $2,500 of a scholarship to reduce the self-help portion (loan, work-study, etc.) of a student's financial aid package. Some Collegiate Partners will also match Dollars for Scholars scholarships up to a specific dollar amount.
For an affiliation fee of just $150 per year, Collegiate Partner Institutions:
• Establish early positive relationships with high school students
• Attract quality students
• Extend community relations efforts
• Become associated with an established and well-respected national scholarship organization
• Gain publicity in Scholarship America publications, which reach more than 2,600 high schools
• Increase private-sector aid coming to their campuses
