Founded by AT&T workers, InspirASIAN is a non-profit employee group. Promoting diversity and its benefits throughout our company and our communities is one of InspirASIAN’s main objectives. Our annual non-renewable scholarships for college-bound high school students are one method we achieve this goal.
ABOUT THE SCHOLARSHIP
Through our scholarship awards, InspirASIAN has an impact on our community by helping graduates of high school seniors pay for their college educations. Students living in any state with an active local InspirASIAN chapter are eligible to apply for national scholarships from InspirASIAN. The national scholarship grants will be given consideration to all applicants. If state scholarships are provided by regional InspirASIAN organizations, students who do not get national scholarships will be given consideration.

• Full-time high school seniors who plan to enroll in an authorized college or institution (2-year and 4-year) in the fall of 2023 and who have outstanding academic standing (min unweighted cumulative GPA of 3.40 on a scale of 4-points).
