National Restaurant Association Scholarships
Scholarship Sponsored by National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation
If you’re planning to study restaurant, foodservice, or hospitality after high school, here’s what you need to know about the NRAEF scholarships — explained plainly and with the important dates highlighted so you can plan. What the program offers - Each year the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation (NRAEF) awards more than $1 million in scholarships to students pursuing post‑secondary degrees in the restaurant, foodservice, and hospitality fields. - Since 1987 the Foundation has invested over $27 million in scholarships and grants, helping more than 6,000 students and food‑service educators. - In addition to student scholarships, the Foundation funds grants for educators and supports individuals seeking industry certifications to advance their careers. Scholarship timeline (mark these on your calendar) - January 15 — Application opens. Start your materials early so you’re not rushed. - March 15 — Application closes. No late applications accepted. - April–May — Applications are reviewed. Use this time to make sure any follow‑up materials are submitted. - June — Award notifications are sent. Check your email (and spam folder). - July–August — Awardees complete claim forms and payments are processed. - August 15 — Final deadline to claim your scholarship. If you don’t claim by this date, you risk losing the award. Quick teacher’s tip: set at least two calendar reminders for the March 15 application deadline and the August 15 claiming deadline — one a week before and another a day before — so nothing slips through the cracks.
