LOC Scholars

In the spirit of Areté, LOC Scholars empowers exceptional students to overcome barriers and shape their own paths to success.

A scholarship for high-achieving, middle-income students seeking to attend and graduate from selective four-year colleges and universities.

By accepting students during their junior year of high school, ahead of the college application cycle, and providing comprehensive higher education support and funding, we position our scholars to reap the full benefit of their undergraduate experience without being sidelined by expenses and contingencies that disproportionately affect them.
