About This Scholarship

The Hagan Scholarship Foundation is a non-profit organization that provides scholarships to high-achieving students in need who come from rural areas in the United States. The scholarship is intended to help students attend college and pursue their academic and professional goals.

The scholarship covers the cost of tuition, fees, books, and room and board for up to eight semesters at an eligible college or university. Recipients are also eligible for up to $5,000 in enrichment funds, which can be used for study abroad programs, internships, or other educational opportunities.

The application process for the Hagan Scholarship is rigorous and includes several rounds of review, including an initial eligibility review, a financial need assessment, and an interview with the foundation’s selection committee. The application deadline is typically in November, and scholarship recipients are announced in April of the following year.
