The Tang Scholarship

The Tang Scholarship was established in 2007 by Mr. Edward C. Tang to provide financial assistance to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Asian and Pacific Islanders (API) for post-secondary education. This scholarship is designed to help LGBT youth proudly achieve educational pursuits and dreams without shame. The scholarship awards up to $15,000 annually to four outstanding students, providing up to $100,000 total over four years of support. These scholarships are renewable for a maximum of three additional years (for a total of four years), provided each student annually meets the renewal requirements. The scholarship is available to students enrolled in accredited two- or four-year colleges, community colleges, universities, graduate schools, or vocational schools.
