RMHC U.S. Scholarships

Students across the country work hard to earn top marks, dreaming of the college they'll attend and the education they'll receive. Unfortunately, many of these won't be able to afford it. We want these students to reach their full potential. To help them accomplish this, our network of U.S. chapters, along with the global office of RMHC, offer scholarships to students in financial need who have demonstrated academic achievement, leadership, and community involvement. Since 1985, more than $60 million in scholarships have been awarded.
