Since 1931, the Elks National Foundation has helped students recognize their academic dreams. Each year, we award more than $3 million in college scholarships to at least 800 outstanding, service-minded high school seniors. These scholarships range from smaller, one-time local awards distributed by individual lodges such as ours, to larger, 4-year scholarships at the national level. Every student that applies has the opportunity to win any of these awards based on the judging criteria set forth by our national organization.
Applicants will be judged on scholarship, leadership, and financial need.
