Horatio Alger Association

The Horatio Alger Association offers 105 National Scholarships from at $25,000 each, and more than 500 State Scholarships at $10,000 each.

Our goal is to support students across the United States who remain resilient in the face of adversity and are experiencing critical financial need. This is why we go beyond the scholarship award to provide our scholarship recipients with additional financial support, and a range of holistic care, including mental health services, mentorship opportunities, and one-on-one academic and financial counselling.

As you share our scholarship with students who qualify, please note that our scholarship is only open to students currently in their junior year. We do this to support our scholarship recipients in their senior year of high school as they prepare to transition to college.

Application will open on 12/1/23
