Undergraduate Scholarships: $50,000

Destiny Scholarships: $50,000

By supporting underrepresented groups of students, this scholarship helps Penn State to create a vibrant and diverse academic community in which all individuals — regardless of ethnicity, gender, or other personal characteristics — can achieve their full potential.
