Eligibility Requirements
Please review the eligibility criteria before you start the application process.

- Live in the United States
- Facing financial barriers preventing you from participating in a Road Scholar program
Generally, scholarships are awarded to recipients whose household income is less than 80% of the median income in their state of residency.
How to Apply
Please complete one application per person. In order to be reviewed by the Financial Assistance Committee, all parts of the application must be complete. Please answer the questions thoughtfully and thoroughly. Your answers will be used to determine eligibility. Any incomplete applications will not be reviewed.
Please use the checklist at the end of the application to ensure that your submission is complete and eligible. We cannot review a program that has passed the final payment date, a sold-out program or for an enrollment that has already been paid in full.
What happens after I apply?
The review of an application takes 4-6 weeks once it has been received by the committee; applications are reviewed in the order that they are received. Therefore, please ensure that you are submitting this application early enough to allow time to enroll and make your arrangements after you receive your award letter.
Here’s How the Scholarship Works
What happens if my application is approved?
- The Scholarship is applied toward the cost of the program you selected in your application.
What if my plans change?
We know that in rare instances, a Scholarship recipient may have to adjust their plans. Here are some things to keep in mind:
- If you cancel your enrollment in the program, the Scholarship becomes void.
- If Road Scholar cancels your program, the Scholarship can be transferred to another program without fees.
- If, after enrollment, you decide to transfer to another eligible program, the Scholarship may be transferred along with the enrollment. The corresponding transfer fees will apply.
- Your Scholarship can’t be transferred to another person.
