Coca-Cola Scholarships Are the Real Thing

The Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation has, for the last twenty-five years, offered nearly 6,000 college scholarships to exceptional high school students who have demonstrated in high school a dedication to active leadership and service that “positively affects others.” 

The Coca-Cola Scholars Program Scholarship is an achievement-based scholarship awarded to graduating high school seniors. Students are recognized for their capacity to lead and serve, as well as their commitment to making a significant impact on their schools and communities. With the 29th class in 2017, the Foundation has provided over 5,850 Coca-Cola Scholars with more than $63 million in educational support. 150 Coca-Cola Scholars are selected each year to receive this $20,000 scholarship.
