About this scholarship

HSF is the largest scholarship organization supporting Hispanic American students. Awards typically range from $500 to $5,000 and can be renewed. High school seniors, undergraduates, and graduate students of Hispanic heritage may apply. You will complete a profile, essays, and financial information. One HSF application also routes you toward partner scholarships, which is why it is worth filing even if the headline award is smaller than Gates. GPA expectations are usually 3.0. Citizenship, permanent residency, and DACA students should check the current cycle rules.
