Scholars & Mentors

The members of the Jackson State University National Alumni Association-Chicago Chapter annually award scholarships to assist Chicago area students in pursuit of higher education at Jackson State University.  To date, the chapter has awarded close to $200,000 in scholarships.

In recognition that successful completion of a degree requires more than financial support, the chapter also supports scholarship recipients and as many Chicago-land students as possible through our Mentoring Program.

Applications are now being accepted for the 2024 JSUCAC Scholarship.  The application deadline is May 15, 2024.

Please Note: Applications will be processed based on the date received and funds availability.  Applicants are strongly encouraged to apply early and completely for best consideration.
