10,000 Degrees Scholarships for Equity

10,000 Degrees proudly provides scholarships to students with significant financial need who exhibit a strong desire to go to college and accomplish their educational goals.

The majority of the scholarships we administer are available to students from the eight Bay Area regions we serve, and who attend colleges both locally and across the nation.

Above & Beyond a Scholarship Check

When a student is awarded a scholarship, that’s just the beginning! All 10,000 Degrees scholarship recipients also receive 1:1 mentorship and support from our trained Fellows both on and off campus during their entire college journey, whether students begin at a community college or four-year institution. Students and alumni can also access our Alumni and Career Success services, and join our Alumni LinkedIn group.
