Celebrating a Decade of Leading Higher Education
Florida has been ranked the No. 1 state in the nation for higher education for 10 consecutive years by U.S. News & World Report. To commemorate this milestone, the State University System of Florida is partnering with public universities statewide to award scholarships to eligible students who share why they chose their institution to pursue their higher education goals.
Each participating Florida public university will award 10 scholarships of up to $1,000 to eligible undergraduate students through the Florida 10 for 10 Scholarship Initiative. Awards will be applied toward Spring 2027 financial aid.
Applications open Monday, August 3, 2026, and close Friday, October 2, 2026, so be sure to submit your story at your university’s application page!
