About This Scholarship

The Pepsi Stronger Together Scholarship is a program that provides financial assistance to students who are pursuing higher education and are impacted by COVID-19. The scholarship is offered by PepsiCo in partnership with the UNCF (United Negro College Fund) and is open to students who are enrolled or planning to enroll at one of the UNCF’s member institutions.

The scholarship award amount varies depending on the level of financial need and availability of funds. Recipients may receive up to $10,000 to cover tuition, fees, and other education-related expenses.

The Pepsi Stronger Together Scholarship is designed to support students who are facing financial hardships due to COVID-19, particularly those who are enrolled at HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) and other minority-serving institutions. By providing financial assistance to students who may otherwise struggle to afford their education, the scholarship program helps to ensure that talented and motivated students have the opportunity to pursue their academic and career goals.
