About This Scholarship

The Foot Locker Scholar Athletes Program is a scholarship program designed to recognize and support outstanding student-athletes who demonstrate academic excellence, leadership, and a commitment to their communities. The program is open to high school seniors who are US citizens or permanent residents and have participated in a varsity sport during their high school career.

The scholarship awards range from $5,000 to $20,000, and are intended to be used for tuition, fees, and other educational expenses at an accredited US college or university. In addition to the financial award, scholarship recipients will be invited to participate in various Foot Locker Scholar Athletes events and programs.
