Scholarships

Emory College has always chosen its incoming class for their intellect, passion, curiosity, and conviction – we seek young people who promise to shine in their own lives and to improve the lives of others. As a result our students excel both in and out of the classroom: as scholars, debaters, artists, athletes, campus leaders, and community volunteers.

To be an even bigger magnet for the nation’s most intellectually and socially engaged student body, the first choice of the most gifted and creative students anywhere, we must remove all economic barriers. No matter their family’s financial status, the various attractions of other colleges, or their continuing needs once enrolled, these stellar young people must see Emory as the one and only place to unleash their potential.

You can help Emory College step into its future. We’re committed to attracting, enrolling and retaining the best students in the nation, and to helping them graduate without significant debt. Read more about Emory Advantage.

Consider endowing a scholarship – and seed the success of future generations of great leaders and lifelong learners.
