About This Opportunity
The Gates Scholarship (TGS) is a highly selective, last-dollar scholarship designed to provide outstanding high school seniors from low-income households with the opportunity to pursue higher education. The program aims to support America's young change-makers by covering the cost of attendance not already covered by other financial aid and family contributions. As a last-dollar scholarship, TGS fills the gap between a student's financial aid package and the total cost of attendance at their chosen institution. This comprehensive support enables students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds to attend college without the burden of excessive financial stress, allowing them to focus on their academic and personal development.
