If you are able to answer yes to these four questions, you are eligible to apply to the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation
Young Scholars Program:
1) Will you enter 8th grade in the fall of 2010?
2) Do you earn grades of all or mostly 'As' in school, with no 'Cs' or below in the past two years in your academic subjects?*
3)Does your family have demonstrated unmet financial need?**
4) Do you reside in the United States or a US Territory and plan to attend a high school in the US?
*Exception: Students with unique talents or documented learning differences.
**While there is no formal financial cut-off, since the Program's inception, over 90 percent of selected Young Scholars have come from families with Adjusted Gross Incomes (AGI) below $60,000. We take into consideration: high cost of living expenses in some areas, extraordinary medical expenses, number of dependents in college, number of dependents, and high cost of supporting children with learning differences.
