Ron Brown Scholarships Program

Scholarship Sponsored by Ron Brown Scholarships Program

Value: $40,000.00
Awards Available: 20
Deadline : Dec 01, 2025

Think of the Ron Brown Scholarship as an opportunity for young leaders who want to make a difference. It honors the legacy of Ronald H. Brown by supporting African American students who combine academic promise with a commitment to community and public life.

What the scholarship offers
- Each year the program awards 20 full, renewable scholarships. Each scholarship can total $40,000 over four years ($10,000 per year) to help pay for an accredited four‑year college or university in the United States.
- Scholars may study any major or pursue any career path — the award is not restricted to a particular field.
- Since the program began in 1996, 683 students have been named Ron Brown Scholars.

What the program looks for
The Ron Brown Scholar Program is competitive. Successful applicants typically:
- Are Black/African American.
- Are U.S. citizens or hold permanent resident status.
- Are current high school seniors at the time they apply.
- Demonstrate strong academic achievement.
- Show exceptional leadership potential.
- Participate in meaningful community service.
- Demonstrate financial need.

Beyond the award: support and network
- Scholars become part of a Leaders Network that connects current scholars, captains, and alumni with mentorship, career development, and a professional community — a resource that often proves as valuable as the financial award.

If you meet the requirements and care about public service, community engagement, entrepreneurship, or global citizenship, you should consider applying — this program is looking for students who combine intellect with a desire to uplift others.
