The Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation
To celebrate Coca-Cola’s centennial in 1986, the Coca-Cola Company and Coca-Cola bottlers teamed together to fund the Coca−Cola Scholars Foundation. This commitment to education enables the Foundation to support over 1,400 college students each year, with annual scholarships of $3.4 million through two nationally recognized programs on behalf of the Coca−Cola System.
The mission of the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation is to provide scholarship programs and alumni enrichment opportunities in support of exceptional peoples’ thirst for knowledge and their desire to make a difference in the world.
The application asks for you to list your grades, school and community activities, and employment, but no essays or additional materials are required.
Coca-Cola Scholars are well-rounded, bright students who not only excel academically, but are also actively involved in their school. These leaders are passionate, service-oriented, and demonstrate a sustained commitment to bettering their community.
This scholarship is unique in that recipients have between 4-6 years to use their full award and may opt to defer all or part of the award within that 6 year timeframe.
In addition to using funds for tuition at an accredited college or university, Scholars may also use their funds for other educational expenses, such as on-campus housing, a computer, and textbooks.
Visit the website here (http://www.coca-colascholarsfoundation.org/applicants/) to apply NOW.
The deadline is October 31
