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 among minority students and other historically underserved communities. Working in partnership with The 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 minority and other historically underserved communities attend college and other post-secondary learning institutions.
Scholarship application window is currently closed.

Students on-track to complete their postsecondary education program, who are facing financial difficulties, may be awarded a one-time scholarship to help them complete their post-secondary education program.
Scholarship applications are currently being accepted.
