Buick Achievers Scholarship Program

The Buick Achievers Scholarship is open for high school seniors, high school graduates, or current postsecondary undergraduate students. The Scholarship program is proudly funded by the GM Foundation. The General Motors college scholarships program rewards students who have succeeded both inside and outside of the classroom and who may not be able to attend college without financial assistance. It’s a reward for what you’ve made of yourself and the difference you are making for others. The Buick Achievers Scholarship Program is awarding 50 Buick Achievers Scholarships of up to $25,000 to the winning candidates.

The funds for the scholarship come from the GM Foundation, not the General Motors Company. The GM Foundation is a 501c (3) organization that is separate from GM.
