Thurgood Marshall College Fund(TMCF) scholarships are designed to relieve the financial burden of students attending a TMCF member school or other eligible accredited colleges or universities. The scholarship process is highly competitive. Most scholarships are one-time, non-renewable scholarships unless otherwise indicated. Scholarships are given without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sex, disability, or national origin.
Established in 1987, the Thurgood Marshall College Fund(TMCF) is the nation’s largest organization exclusively representing the black college community.
