The Cameron Impact Scholarship covers full tuition, fees, and books (not room and board) for four years at any accredited U.S. college the recipient chooses, awarded to 15 students annually. Students apply during 11th grade for the graduating class two years out (the Class of 2028 cycle opens February 1, 2027), then are interviewed and notified the following fall/winter during senior year. Applicants need a minimum unweighted 3.7 GPA, must be full U.S. citizens (permanent residents do not qualify), and submit two recommendation letters plus word-limited essays. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis up to a 3,000-application cap or May 1, whichever comes first.
DemographicsOpen to all backgrounds meeting the GPA and citizenship bar; must be a full U.S. citizen (permanent residents do not qualify), planning full-time enrollment at an accredited 4-year U.S. college. Gap-year students may apply with the class they intend to enroll alongside. Applicants apply while in 11th grade (junior year), not as seniors, since the February-May application window falls within the applicant's junior year.
