US Foods Scholars Program

The US Foods Scholars Program provides scholarships up to $20,000 to students who have demonstrated outstanding potential and achievement in the culinary arts and hospitality, helping them take the next step in their culinary journey.  

US Foods awards scholarships to students from eligible schools in Atlanta, Austin, Tuskegee, Daytona Beach, Raleigh, and Portland (OR). Applicants must be full-time undergraduate students or students planning to enroll at one of the partner schools for the entire upcoming academic year. They must be pursuing either a two-year associate degree in the culinary arts or a related discipline (including, but not limited to, culinary science, baking and pastry arts, and food business management) or a four-year bachelor’s degree in hospitality management. 

Applicants must be 35 years old or younger; be U.S. residents authorized to work in the 50 states and the District of Columbia; and have a minimum GPA of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale (or its equivalent). Awards given to first-year students are renewable for a second year, provided eligibility is maintained.
