Our 2025 Regional Finalists
We have our 250 Regional Finalists!
Reaching this level distinguishes these students as extraordinary leaders in their school and community. Over 105,000 applicants and 1,336 Semifinalists participated in our program - to be selected as a Regional Finalist is an outstanding accomplishment.
Regional Finalists will now participate in the next phase of our selection process, a 20-minute interview with our Regional Interview Committee comprised of a Foundation staff member and previous Coca-Cola Scholars Program scholarship recipients.
After these interviews, 150 students will be named Coca-Cola Scholars-select and receive a $20,000 college scholarship.
A joint effort of Coca-Cola bottlers across the country and The Coca-Cola Company, the Coca-Cola Scholars Program is the largest corporate-sponsored, achievement-based scholarship program in the United States.
With the addition of the 2024 class, the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation will have provided more than 7,050 Coke Scholars nationwide with over $87 million in scholarships over the course of 37 years.
