CBC Spouses Education Scholarship

The CBC Spouses Education Scholarship was established in 1988 by the spouses of Congressional Black Caucus members to address the educational need in the congressional districts in response to federal cuts in spending for education programs and scholarships, which disproportionately affect people of color. This opportunity awards scholarships to academically talented and highly motivated African-American or Black students pursuing an undergraduate, graduate, or doctoral degrees in a variety of fields. The CBC Spouses Education Scholarship provides financial assistance to African American undergraduate and graduate students who are majoring in any field. Students who reside or attend school in a district represented by a member of the Congressional Black Caucus are welcome to apply.
