The Hagan Scholarship is a nationwide need-based merit scholarship for high achieving, self-motivated students. The scholarship provides up to $6,000 each semester to help recipients graduate college debt-free, up to $48,000 over eight consecutive semesters. This fall, Hagan Scholars from 46 states will attend 409 colleges and universities. Recipients must graduate from one of over 6,000 eligible public high schools listed on the HSF website. Recipients must enroll at a four-year college or university the first semester following high school graduation. Scholarship benefits include Free Workshops to provide recipients with a practical understanding of important life skills not typically taught in the school curriculum, a $15,000 Investment Account, and $8,000 to Study-Travel Abroad.
