The NJ Gathering is committed to empowering the next generation of Black and Brown leaders by partnering with organizations who offer scholarship opportunities for high school seniors planning to attend a Historically Black College or University (HBCU). We recognize the rich legacy of HBCUs in shaping excellence, pride, and purpose, and our goal is to support students who are ready to continue that legacy.

 

These scholarships provide financial assistance to help ease the transition from high school to college, while also offering access to valuable resources such as mentorship, networking opportunities, and college success tools. We are looking for students who demonstrate academic promise, leadership potential, and a passion for making a positive impact in their communities. Awards are based on the applicant’s academic performance, leadership qualities, and the strength of their application. By investing in your future now, we aim to help you thrive at your chosen HBCU and beyond.
