The Gates Scholarship (TGS) is a highly selective, last-dollar scholarship for outstanding,
minority, high school seniors from low-income households. Each year, the scholarship is
awarded to exceptional student leaders, with the intent of helping them realize their maximum
potential.
Selected Scholars will receive funding for the full cost of attendance to earn a bachelor’s
degree, that is not already covered by other financial aid and the expected family contribution,
as determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), or the methodology
used by a Scholar’s college or university. Costs covered include tuition, fees, books, room and
board, and may include additional personal costs.
TGS also provides Scholars with various online support services designed to help them excel in
their degree programs, graduate, and make a successful transition to their chosen careers.
These include career services, mentoring, leadership development, wellness, and knowledge
building.
