Coca-Cola Two-Year Scholars Foundation
Congratulations to the 2007 Coca Cola Scholars!
In 2000, the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation received a grant from
the Joseph B. Whitehead Foundation in Atlanta, Georgia, with the challenge to
create an initiative that would enhance the post secondary education of future
leaders. With that directive, the Coca-Cola Two-Year Colleges Scholarship
Program was created.
"The Coca-Cola Two-Year Colleges Scholarship Program addresses a large, primarily under-served, population of college students. A scholarship of this nature provides the support and sense of encouragement these students need to continue to succeed," said J. Mark Davis, president, Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation.
First or second year community college students planning to continue their education at a two-year institution may be nominated by their college to apply for the Coca-Cola Two-Year Colleges Scholarship administered by the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation.
Through the Coca-Cola Two-Year Colleges Scholarship Program, the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation is awarding up to 350 awards annually in the amount of $1,000 each. Students must have demonstrated academic success and completed 100 hours of community services within the previous 12 months to apply.
Nominators - Please note that in the past two students per campus were eligible for nomination. This year, only one nominee per campus may be submitted.
