Hi @Steven Ransom here's a link to the information from Visa and Thurgood Marshall College Fund, including eligibility for the scholarship:

The Visa Black Scholars and Jobs Program, in partnership with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF), is a new program designed for college-bound Black and African American students in the United States. Eligible high school seniors applying or intending to enroll as a full-time undergraduate in any four-year accredited college or university in the U.S. can receive a needs-based scholarship grant of up to $20,000/year. Scholars who continue to meet the criteria, remain in good standing and maintain a minimum of 3.0 GPA will be eligible for annual renewals. Upon graduation, all scholarship recipients who have met their commitments will be guaranteed a full-time job with Visa. The establishment of this program is aligned with Visa’s commitment to cultivate an inclusive and diverse workplace that supports the development and advancement of all.

a new program designed for college-bound Black and African American students in the United States. 🤔 That's a bias statement...

I think it would read better as a new program designed for college-bound African American students in the United States.

This by no means is this a reflection on you Karen Murphy. 🤍

شكرا لكل التمنيات المتحققة حظ سعيد
