Just a few things needed to be eligible:

  • Be a current postsecondary undergraduate or graduate students or planning to enroll in undergraduate or graduate study at an accredited two- or four-year college, university or vocational-technical school for the 2025-2026 academic year.
Continue the application process by selecting your store and selecting "Apply Now."  

You will be directed to the application platform to register, complete your Profile, and continue your application.
Upon submitting your application, an email will be sent to your store’s Operator/Interim Manager asking them to complete a recommendation on your behalf. They must submit a recommendation by the deadline in order for your application to be fully considered.

The earlier you submit your application, the sooner your Operator/Interim Manager can begin their recommendation.

You are also able to upload a secondary letter of recommendation as an attachment to the “Supporting Documents” section of your application. This can come from someone who can provide information on your behalf about your skills, strengths and goals. For example:

  • a school counselor
  • supervisor at a job
  • professor/teacher
  • coach or mentor
  • etc.
A recommender cannot be related to you.
The Chick-fil-A Remarkable Futures Scholarships will consider the following in selections:
$1,000 or $2,500 Scholarship:
  • Recommendation. (Up to two).
  • Minimum 2.5 GPA out of 4.0 scale.
  • Demonstrated Care & Service.
$25,000 Scholarship:
  • Recommendation. (Up to two).
  • Minimum 3.0 GPA out of 4.0 scale.
  • Demonstrated Care & Service.
  • Must demonstrate financial need.

If an applicant applies for the $25,000 Scholarship and is not selected, they will be considered for the $1,000 or $2,500 Scholarship.

An applicant may receive only one Chick-fil-A Remarkable Futures Scholarship Award each application cycle.

Award recipients may only receive the $25,000 Scholarship once in recipient’s lifetime. $25,000 Scholarship recipients will also have the opportunity to participate in a one-year leadership development program facilitated by Chick-fil-A, Inc., which includes mentoring and professional development opportunities.

Scholarship America will select recipients of the $1,000 or $2,500 Scholarship and finalists for the $25,000 Scholarship.
