Program overview
TSCF Education Support Scholarship
The TSCF Education Support Scholarship exists because talent and ambition are not rare — but opportunity is. We provide term-based financial support to students at the secondary and university levels who demonstrate genuine financial need and maintain satisfactory academic standing.
Funding is limited. Not every applicant will receive a scholarship. We evaluate each application carefully and award support where we believe it will make the most meaningful difference. Recipients must reapply each term and demonstrate continued academic progress to remain eligible.
Important: Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. We encourage early submission. Receiving a scholarship in one term does not guarantee renewal — reapplication with updated academic records is required every term.
Support tiers

Our commitment
Recipient privacy
Each term, TSCF selects scholarship recipients across secondary and university levels. Their dedication inspires us and their futures motivate everything we do.
We do not publish the names, photos, or personal details of scholarship recipients. Their privacy is protected as a matter of principle. The only story we tell is one of collective impact — and the numbers speak for themselves.
