1 for 2 Education Foundation Scholarship

The 1 for 2 Education Foundation is seeking highly motivated applicants of accredited U.S. four-year colleges and universities. For the 2024 academic year, the Foundation selected a diverse group of five scholars who attended both public high schools from four states. Grants of up to $20,000 per academic year were made to attend both public and private colleges and universities across the U.S. 

For the 2025 academic year the Foundation intends to award at least two merit-based scholarships. The size of the individual grants is determined on the basis of tuition remaining after considering all other forms of tuition assistance obtained by the scholar. 

Requirements to Apply: 

● An up to date official transcript from current school
