Greetings!
We’re excited to announce that the first wave of scholarships for Thurgood Marshall College Fund’s (TMCF) 2026–2027 scholarship application cycle officially opened Monday, September 15, 2025!
This is an opportunity for your students to apply for life-changing financial support to help them in their college journey. The wave 1 application closes Friday, January 16, 2026, at 11:59 PM EST (Eastern Standard Time). No late submissions will be accepted.
Students Can Get Started Today:
Explore all open TMCF scholarships at tmcf.org/scholarships/open-scholarships.
When they’re ready, log in and apply directly at scholarships.tmcf.org.
TMCF offers some extra guidance.
We’ll be hosting a series of Best-Practice Webinars throughout the year, designed to help students navigate the application process and put their best brand forward. Students can attend whichever session fits their schedule. All sessions will be held via Zoom. Register here to save your spot!
We encourage students to start early, plan ahead, and take full advantage of these resources to submit the strongest application possible.
