Service Entrepreneurship Scholarship Make an impact. Win a full scholarship.
The Presbyterian College Service Entrepreneurship Scholarship Competition gives high school seniors the opportunity to win a full scholarship to PC by creating a plan that solves a problem in their community.
What will you do?
If you’re creative, motivated, intellectually curious, and service-oriented, we want you to identify a problem in your community and make a plan for how to solve it.
Your plan should answer questions like:
- What problem are you solving, and why is it a compelling problem?
- What is your solution and how will it create change in your community?
- What is your projected timeline for implementing your solution?
- What resources or guidance from qualified parties informed your proposal?
A Business That Helps Those in Need
You might have heard about Blake Mycoskie, the founder of TOMS shoes. Mycoskie wanted to support those who live in poverty. His company donates one pair of shoes for every one sold, raising awareness about issues like global poverty.
PC students do that kind of thing too.
When her mother became ill, rising sophomore Maggie Judd came up with the idea to create a business that lends medical equipment to those in need.
Maggie and her family couldn’t find the medical equipment they needed. Maggie thought of others who might not be able to rent or buy the medical equipment they need.
She created a nonprofit organization that makes use of the material resources already available in the community and shares them with other patients.
“An outreach project like a durable medical equipment loan service is my chance to make a difference in my local community and help my neighbors,” Maggie wrote in her Service Entrepreneurship Competition proposal.
Win a scholarship.
The Service Entrepreneurship Competition is a social entrepreneurship case competition open to all high school seniors in the U.S. Students must apply to PC by December 1 and may work individually or in teams of two or three.
Winners will receive one of the following:
- Winner(s): Full ride scholarship, which includes: tuition, fees, standard housing and unlimited meal plan totaling $55,100 in 2023-2024. The total amount for the four-year scholarship is $220,400. The winner(s) will also receive coaching, mentoring, and independent study class credit to put their plan into action.
- Runner(s)-up: $34,000 scholarship and coaching, mentoring, and independent study class credit to put their plan into action. The total amount of the four-year scholarship is $136,000.
- Honorable Mention(s): A $30,000 scholarship and coaching, mentoring, and independent study class credit to put their plan into action. The total amount of the four-year scholarship is $120,000.
The winner(s), runner(s)-up, and honorable mention(s) must be admitted to PC to receive scholarships. The Service Entrepreneurship Scholarship cannot be combined with other PC merit scholarships or programs. If you have already been offered a scholarship, your previous scholarship will be canceled and replaced by the Service Entrepreneurship Scholarship.
Change your community. Now.
You must submit your plan by Dec. 1 to be considered for a Service Entrepreneurship Scholarship.
