Greenhouse Scholars Program

Scholarship Description

Greenhouse Scholars’ vision is to create a community of leaders who will evolve the communities of the world. We are not a typical scholarship: we support each Scholar through a special community and with a unique program that provides critical personal and professional support, plus financial subsidies ($5,000 per year for a maximum of 4 years).

Our Whole Person approach, consisting of 8 program components, is designed to connect our Scholars to opportunities and experiences, while also cultivating skill sets and meaningful relationships. We look for high-performing high school seniors who come from low-income communities and have demonstrated true leadership and positive community contributions.

Applicants must be/have:

1) a graduating high school senior who is planning to attend a 4-year, accredited institution,

2) a resident of one of the following states – California, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, New York, or North Carolina,

3) a minimum un-weighted, cumulative GPA of 3.5, and

4) an annual household income no greater than $80,000 for a family of four.
