CVS Health Children of Colleagues Scholarship Program
Deadline to apply: April 15, 2025 3:00 pm CT

CVS Health Foundation has established a scholarship program to assist children of colleagues who plan to continue their education in college or vocational school programs.

The 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 CVS Health Children of Colleagues Scholarship Program must:

  • Be dependent* children, age 25 and under, of full-time CVS Health domestic colleagues who have a minimum of one (1) year of employment with the company as of the application deadline.
    *Dependent children are defined as natural and legally adopted children, stepchildren, or foster children under legal guardianship of the CVS Health colleague parent/guardian.
  • Be high school seniors or graduates or current college undergraduates
  • Plan to enroll in full-time undergraduate study at an accredited two- or four-year college, university, or vocational-technical school for the entire upcoming academic year.

Children of executives are ineligible. Executives are defined as AVP and above.

Awards

If selected as a recipient, the student will receive an award ranging from $4,000 to $5,000. Awards may vary based on how many recipients can be awarded. The program is administered in compliance with IRS Revenue Procedure 76-47 and no more than 25% of eligible applicants will be awarded.

Awards are not renewable, but students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements.

Awards are for undergraduate study only.

Awards are for qualified education-related expenses only (tuition, fees, books, and required supplies/equipment). Award amounts may be adjusted if award exceeds the cost of qualified education-related expenses.

Notification

All applicants will be notified in June.

Payment of Scholarships

Scholarship America processes scholarship payments on behalf of CVS Health Foundation. Payment is made in August.
