Collaborative. Straightforward. Easy.
Creating a scholarship can be a complex web of legal, financial, and promotional challenges. You need a partner who understands the process. As a nonprofit with 60+ years of experience working shoulder-to-shoulder with thousands of companies, foundations, and individuals, we’re ready to provide simple, direct, and transparent solutions that align with your mission.
A scholarship that represents your organization and your goals
No two scholarships are alike—which is why we never approach them as one-size-fits-all. We work with you to determine the best course of action and draw on your organizational expertise to develop a program that offers students the support you’re passionate about providing.
No matter the school, location, or area of study, we build around you. Our experts are ready to help design programs for students at any stage of their educational journey—in high school preparing for the future, in college or trade school pushing toward completion, or experiencing a financial emergency during their studies.
Wells Fargo strives to open doors for more students. By partnering with Scholarship America, we are able to provide significant, impactful support to those who didn't think they could ever afford college. — Muneera Carr, Wells Fargo Chief Accounting Officer
