Callaway Golf Foundation Scholarship Program
Deadline to apply: April 14, 2025 3:00 pm CT

The Callaway Golf Company Foundation is pleased to provide a program to benefit dependents of Company employees. If you are an employee of the Company, a member of your family may be eligible to receive a scholarship to college!

The Callaway Golf Foundation Scholarship Program will provide financial awards to promising students who seek higher education. Both the Company and the Callaway Golf Company Foundation firmly believe in the fundamental importance of education and that it should be accessible to everyone, regardless of his or her background or financial position.

This program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarships and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals. Eligibility for individual programs is determined at the sole discretion of the sponsor, and eligible applications are reviewed by Scholarship America’s evaluation team.

Applicants to the Callaway Golf Foundation Scholarship must:

  • Be dependents* of full-time Callaway Golf Company employees. Applicants who have received a scholarship from this Program prior to the start of this current Program cycle shall not be required to meet eligibility requirements concerning any employment with the Sponsor.
    *Dependents are defined as biological, step- or current college undergraduates.
  • Be high school seniors or graduates or current college undergraduates
  • Plan to enroll in, or students who are already enrolled, in a full-time undergraduate study at an accredited two- or four-year college, university or vocational-technical school for the entire upcoming academic year in the United States

Dependents of Officers are not eligible to apply to the program.

 

What is the award?

Scholarship amounts can range from $3,000 to $10,000, the exact amount to be determined by Scholarship America based on your family’s ability to contribute to your education. Scholarship recipients whose families have no financial need as calculated by Scholarship America or whose parents do not wish to complete the Financial Data section of the application will receive a one-time honorary award of $3,000. All honorarium recipients may reapply each year that they meet eligibility requirements.

Other than the $3,000 honorarium, scholarships are for one (1) year and are renewable for up to three (3) additional years. Your scholarship will be eligible for renewal based on:

  • Satisfactory academic performance based on cumulative GPA
  • Full-time attendance the entire academic year

Payment of Scholarships

Scholarship America processes scholarship payments on behalf of The Callaway Golf Company Foundation. Payments are made in early August.

How are decisions made?

Scholarships are awarded based on merit. Consideration will be given to:

  • academic performance
  • demonstrated leadership abilities and participation in school or community activities
  • work experience
  • a statement of educational and career goals and objectives
  • unusual personal or family circumstances
  • an online recommendation

Selection of recipients is made by Scholarship America. In no instance does any officer or employee of The Callaway Golf Company Foundation play a part in the selection. All applicants agree to accept the decision as final.

When do I find out?

Applicants are notified by early May. Recipients will receive an emailed link to Scholarship America’s online acceptance form. Recipients must complete and submit the form to claim their award. The acceptance form will confirm which school you will attend and include necessary information for issuance of the check.

    • Student name
    • School name
    • Grades

NOTE: If you are uploading a high school transcript, you must also upload a copy of your official SAT or ACT test scores if the test scores are not available on your high school transcript.
