21st Century Scholarship is an initiative of The Indiana Commission for Higher Education. The candidates must be enrolled as undergraduate tuition at any participating public college or university in Indiana, to be eligible for a scholarship. As a 21st Century Scholar, not only do you earn a scholarship, you get step-by-step help to make sure you succeed in college, the more college choices you’ll have. Strive to do your best in every class to make sure you stay on track to succeed.
Indiana’s 21st Century Scholars Program began in 1990 to ensure that every Hoosier student can afford the opportunity provided by a college degree. Today, eligible students who keep the Scholar Pledge to excellence in school and life receive a Scholarship to help pay for their college education.
