Dell 500 scholarship and support for college students
IT TAKES MORE THAN FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO REACH COLLEGE GRADUATION.
That’s why the Dell Scholars program was designed to provide a support system for the challenges many students face while pursuing a degree. Even so, we recognize that college costs can be a significant burden for many students and their families. Nationally, 500 Dell Scholars are selected each year to receive a scholarship plus lots of non-monetary supports.

$20,000 Scholarship
Flexible funds that scholars can use for the many costs that arise during their college career
Personalized, MultiFaceted Support
