 THE COOLIDGE SCHOLARSHIP UPDATES

The Coolidge Scholarship is a full-ride, presidential scholarship that is given out every year. It pays for a student's tuition, room and board, and other costs for their first four years of college.

This one-of-a-kind scholarship can be used at any college or university in the U.S. that is recognised by the government.

ABOUT THE COOLIDGE SCHOLARSHIP

WHAT THE COOLIDGE SCHOLARSHIP IS ABOUT

The application for the 2023-24 Coolidge Scholarship, which is open to students in high school who will graduate in the spring of 2025, is not yet open. It will open sometime in the autumn of 2023.

The Coolidge Scholarship is a full-ride, presidential scholarship that is given out every year. It pays for a student's tuition, room and board, and other costs for their first four years of college. The Coolidge can be used at any college or university in the United States that is recognised by the government. This programme is open to anyone, regardless of their background or the subject they are studying in school.

The Coolidge Scholarship is given to students in their junior year of high school. Finalists are taken to the Coolidge Historic Site in Plymouth Notch, Vermont, for a finalist weekend, where they meet with the Coolidge Scholars Finalist Jury and talk about their projects. Winners of the Coolidge Scholarship find out in the autumn of their junior year, before they apply to college. High school seniors who are still in school are not qualified to apply. Those who are finalists but aren't chosen as Coolidge Scholars can get a smaller, one-time college scholarship.

Calvin Coolidge worked hard in school. Public speech, often about public policy, was the only thing the young New Englander liked to do for fun. So, intellectual excellence is the main thing that sets Coolidge Scholars apart. Other criteria include showing interest in public policy, understanding the ideals Coolidge stood for, and being humble and willing to serve.

Coolidge Scholars who have just been chosen spend a few days at the President's home, Plymouth Notch, Vt., in the summer before their senior year of high school. There, students learn about Coolidge and the world he lived in, and they also help the Coolidge Foundation run its strong debate programmes. Scholars go back to Plymouth Notch every summer for a week while they are in college.

Even though only a few kids are chosen as Coolidge Scholars each year, the top one hundred applicants are called "Coolidge Senators." Senators from Coolidge are called to the Senators Summit, which takes place every summer in Washington, D.C., and pays for all of their costs.  At the Summit, the Senators learn about President Coolidge and visit the nation's centre. They also meet other high-achieving students from all over the country.

The Calvin Coolidge Presidential Foundation is in charge of the Coolidge Scholars Programme.
