The Hispanic Scholarship Fund
HSF is the
nation’s leading provider of scholarships and services designed to give Latino
students full access to the opportunity a college education can provide.
Founded in 1975, we have awarded over $619 million in scholarships.
Scholarships range from $500 to $5,000, and Finalists who do not receive
financial awards nevertheless qualify to be HSF Scholars and have access to our
full range of Scholar Support Services, such as career coaching, internship
and full-time employment opportunities, mentoring, leadership development, and
wellness resources, including tools for self-advocacy, well-being, and
knowledge building.
