The Coca-Cola First Generation Scholarship Program

The Coca-Cola First Generation Scholarship Program

• The Villanova/Coca-Cola First Generation Scholarship Program awards five partial scholarships per year to academically outstanding undergraduates who are the first in their families to attend college, and demonstrate a financial need. First generation is defined as students whose parents or siblings have neither completed a degree from a two-year or four-year institution, nor are currently in the process of taking coursework towards a two-year or four-year degree.
• The scholarship can be renewed for an additional three years of undergraduate study if recipients maintain certain academic standards.
• In order to apply for the scholarship, candidates must complete and submit the Common Application with the Member School Section for Villanova, no later than January 15. In addition, candidates must complete a Coca-Cola First Generation Scholarship Program application and submit to the Office of University Admission by February 7.
