The Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program
The Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program is a global initiative designed to develop the next generation of transformative leaders by enabling highly talented, service-oriented young people to pursue higher education and cultivate their leadership potential.
The Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program forges powerful partnerships with higher education institutions to deliver robust support to individual Mastercard Foundation Scholars, particularly during their academic journeys and transitions into work.
The Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program has committed over 57,000 scholarships for young African leaders to succeed in the world of work and grow as transformative leaders. By 2030, we aim to double our impact by enabling 100,000 young people to access higher education.
The Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program is implemented through our partner universities and non-governmental organizations. The application process and decision-making are managed individually by each partner. If you are interested in becoming a Mastercard Foundation Scholar, please apply directly through the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program-affiliated institution you wish to attend.

Partner institutions have their own application processes, deadlines, and admission fees. We recommend that you read through the application guidelines or contact the institution of your choice for more information. For schools that require application fees as part of the admissions process, the fees will be reimbursed if the student is selected for the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program.
