About this opportunity
Chick-fil-A has established a scholarship program to assist students who plan to continue their education in college, vocational, or graduate school programs. The program provides up to $25,000 awards to eligible students who demonstrate strong academics, community service involvement, and financial need. If selected as a Chick-fil-A Community Scholar, students will receive financial support for undergraduate or graduate study at any accredited college or university, or vocational-technical school. Additionally, recipients have the opportunity to participate in a one-year leadership development program facilitated by Chick-fil-A, Inc., which includes mentoring and professional development opportunities.
Applicants must be 18 years of age by July 15, 2026, currently reside in the United States, Puerto Rico, or Canada, and be a high school senior, college undergraduate, or graduate student planning to enroll full-time for the 2026-2027 academic year. A minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale is required, along with involvement in community service, extracurricular activities, and/or leadership roles. Citizenship or permanent residency is not required—DACA recipients and international students attending college in the U.S., Puerto Rico, or Canada are eligible to apply.
