APIA Scholars Program

Program Description

The Asian & Pacific Islander American Scholarship Fund makes a difference in communities by mobilizing resources to create opportunities for students to access, complete, and succeed after post-secondary education, thereby developing future leaders who will excel in their careers, serve as role models in their communities, and will ultimately contribute to a more vibrant America.

Nearly 50 percent of all AAPI students enrolled in higher education are attending community colleges. APIASF was one of the first organizations to create a national scholarship program to help these underserved students.
