The Bonner Scholar Program supports individuals who otherwise could not afford to attend college because of financial need. Bonner Scholar Programs meet the fully documented needs of U.S. citizens and may need the fully documented needs of non-U.S. citizens. In return for the financial aid support, the Bonner Scholars are expected to engage in 8-10 hours a week of community service during the school year (120-140 hours per semester) and 280 hours in the summer. If you are interested in becoming a Bonner, you must apply directly to one of Corella and Bertram F. Bonner Foundation's campus partners. Each campus has its own application and selection process. We suggest contacting both the Admissions Office and the Bonner Program office at the school(s) you're interested in applying to for admission. Please visit the award's website for more information.
