About This Opportunity

The GE-Reagan Foundation Scholarship Program offers college scholarships of up to $40,000 for high school seniors nationwide who showcase leadership, drive, integrity, and citizenship. Each year, the program selects numerous recipients to receive a $10,000 scholarship renewable for up to an additional three years – up to $40,000 total per recipient. GE-Reagan Foundation Scholars are among America's foremost young leaders who personify the values that President Reagan took to Washington and inspired a nation with three decades ago. Like President Reagan, candidates use the formative experiences of their youth to lead, serve and pursue a life of purpose and significance, both individually and for their communities. The scholarship evaluates candidates based on their demonstration of leadership, integrity, drive, and citizenship within their communities, schools, and workplaces, along with strong academic performance.
