APIA Scholars

Based in Washington, D.C., the Asian & Pacific Islander American Scholars (APIA Scholars) is the nation's largest non-profit organization devoted to providing college scholarships for Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI). Our mission is to make a difference in the lives of Asian and Pacific Islander American (APIA) students by providing them with resources that increase their access to higher education which serves as the foundation for their future success. We carry out our mission by providing scholarships to APIA students; forging partnerships among corporations, foundations, community organizations and individuals to provide adequate resources to APIA communities; providing mentorship and programs to facilitate students' academic success, leadership, and professional and personal growth so they can transition from classroom to the workforce. Since 2003, APIA Scholars has distributed more than $150 million in scholarships to deserving AAPI students.
