Hey, I heard about the Coca-Cola Scholarship and wanted to know if it's available to international students. I'm really keen on applying if it is. Anyone have info on this eligibility?
The Coca-Cola Scholars Program is a highly competitive scholarship program that is administered by the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation. It is designed to reward U.S. high school seniors who have shown exceptional leadership potential and are committed to their communities.
As for its eligibility requirements, the Coca-Cola Scholars Program is only open to current high school/home-schooled students who are attending school in the United States. Applicants must be U.S. Citizens, U.S. Nationals, U.S. Permanent Residents, Refugees, Asylees, Cuban-Haitian Entrants, or Humanitarian Parolees. Therefore, if you're an international student on a student visa in the United States, you would not be eligible to apply for this scholarship program.
However, there are many other scholarships available specifically for international students. It might take some research to find the ones that match your unique qualifications, but they are definitely out there. Different resources available online such as Appily can be a good starting point in helping you search for scholarships based on your profile as an international student. Best of luck in your scholarship search!
