Equitable Excellence Scholarship

Equitable is committed to students who show potential: those with the courage to pursue what’s possible; who display strength in managing challenges; who share wisdom with others. The Equitable Excellence Scholarship is celebrating 20 years of providing funding to students who are dedicated to achieving their dreams.  

To support students throughout their academic journeys, Equitable will provide 100 $5,000 annual scholarships that will be renewed each academic year for four years, for a total of $20,000 per recipient. And 100 $2,500 one-time scholarships will be awarded. 

Applicants of the Equitable Excellence Scholarship must be high school seniors with financial need who plan to enroll in a full-time undergraduate course of study at an accredited two- or four-year college or university. Applicants must also be United States citizens or legal residents in one of the 50 U.S. states, District of Columbia or Puerto Rico, and will be asked to demonstrate outstanding achievement in a school, community, or workplace activity.
