Scholarship America believes that every student deserves an opportunity to go to college, regardless of their financial status. As the nation’s largest private education support organization, having distributed over $4.5 billion to more than 2.8 million students, we have worked directly with students, parents, donors, colleges, businesses and communities to empower people to achieve their educational goals, helping to improve lives and create economic prosperity for both individuals and society.

We are professionals, dedicated to helping students follow their dreams and complete their degree programs through renewable, consistent support programs. We are experts in higher education, having worked with parents, students and all types of providers for 60 years. And we are passionate advocates for broader policies and solutions that will improve college access, affordability and completion for all students — especially those who need help and support the most.

Scholarship America is proud to be recognized as a National Standard Top Workplace by Energage and the StarTribune. This recognition honors our commitment to our values, our open communication between employees and management and our work to innovate and operate efficiently.
