Coca-Cola Scholars Program Scholarship

The Coca-Cola Scholars Program scholarship is an achievement-based scholarship awarded to students in their final year of high school. 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 37th class in 2025, the Foundation has provided over 7,000 Coca-Cola Scholars with more than $87 million in educational support. The selection process involves four phases: an initial online application (August 1 - September 30), semifinalist selection where approximately 1% of applicants advance, regional finalist interviews with Coke Scholar alumni and staff, and final selection of 150 scholars who attend a required Coke Scholars Weekend in Atlanta. 150 Coca-Cola Scholars are selected each year to receive this $20,000 scholarship. Applicants must be currently enrolled high school students attending school in one of the 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, or select DoD schools, with U.S. citizenship or eligible immigration status. Students must have a minimum 3.0 GPA and be planning to pursue a degree at an accredited U.S. post-secondary institution.
