What Is Carson Scholars Program?
Carson Scholars Fund awards $1,000 college scholarships to nominated students in grades 4–11 at accredited US schools. Applicants need a minimum 3.75 GPA and demonstrated community service, and each school nominates one student. The page’s 2026–27 season lists nominations from October 19 to December 16 and a January 13 full application deadline, with both closing deadlines at 11:59 PM EST. Confirm the current forms and cycle dates with your school. Scholarship funds are invested until graduation; a separate repeat-recognition route serves existing scholars.
