We believe opportunities to advance through higher learning should be open to everyone.
In 2021, The Sallie Mae Fund, our charitable foundation, launched scholarship programs to further promote diversity in higher education for students from historically underserved communities. Working in partnership with Thurgood Marshall College Fund, we’re awarding $3 million in scholarships over the next three years to help students achieve their dream of a post-secondary education.
Our high school scholarship program helps high school seniors from historically underserved communities attend college and other post-secondary learning institutions.
Scholarship application window is currently closed.
Students in their final year of study, who are facing financial difficulties, may be awarded a one-time scholarship of up to $2,500 to help them complete their post-secondary education program.
The scholarship application period is now closed.
Our graduate scholarship program helps graduate and professional students from historically underserved communities reach their education goals.
Scholarship application window is currently closed.
