Higher education is a powerful stepping stone to success, but the cost of tuition, books, and living expenses can be overwhelming—especially for students attending Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). That’s where the McKinney Scholarship Fund steps in to make a lasting difference. Our mission is to provide scholarships for HBCU students and help them access the resources they need to thrive, including financial aid for Alabama State University.
Why Scholarships for HBCU Students Matter
HBCUs play a vital role in educating African American students, fostering community leadership, and nurturing cultural excellence. However, many HBCU students face financial barriers that can impact their ability to complete their education. That’s why targeted support—like the programs we offer—is critical.
By offering scholarships for HBCU students, the McKinney Scholarship Fund not only alleviates the burden of tuition but also boosts students’ confidence and encourages them to pursue their dreams without financial stress. We focus on high-achieving and highly motivated individuals who are committed to education, leadership, and service.
Supporting Alabama State University Scholars
Located in Montgomery, Alabama State University (ASU) is one of the nation’s oldest HBCUs and a proud symbol of Black excellence in education. Our fund provides specific financial aid for Alabama State University students, recognizing the institution’s legacy of academic achievement and community empowerment.
Eligible ASU students can apply for need-based or merit-based scholarships through the McKinney Scholarship Fund to offset tuition, books, housing, and more. We work closely with ASU advisors to ensure our recipients receive the resources they need to succeed both academically and personally.
How the McKinney Scholarship Fund Makes an Impact
At McKinney Scholarship Fund, we understand that financial aid is not just about covering costs—it’s about unlocking opportunity. Our scholarships are designed to support not only academic success but also leadership development and community involvement.
Here’s what sets our program apart:
- Scholarships dedicated to HBCU students across the country
- Tailored financial aid for Alabama State University students
