How are the Roosevelt Scholarship Program students selected?

Scholarship students are selected out of a large pool of applicants every year based on their academic ability to adapt, interpersonal skills, resilience and determination, emotional intelligence, language skills, and family support. They demonstrate a passion for learning, excitement about attending Colegio Roosevelt, and great potential in academics, intellect or extracurricular activities. They also demonstrate financial need by having attended an elementary school where monthly fees were equal to or below 15% of Colegio Roosevelt’s monthly tuition.

How is the Roosevelt Scholarship Program funded?

From the beginning, Colegio Roosevelt’s Board of Directors committed to fund the Roosevelt Scholarship Program by allocating 7.5% of school entrance fees for this purpose. This allowed the program to provide scholarships for two students every year. Unfortunately, the Covid-19 pandemic affected enrollment at Colegio Roosevelt and available funds for the Roosevelt Scholarship Program took a hit: Now the school is able to cover the costs for ONE new scholarship student every year. Since having two scholarship students enter the school at the same time has proven to be a key contributing factor of the success of the program, starting in 2022, we are launching a fundraising effort to cover the costs of the second Roosevelt Scholarship Program student every year.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Our goal is to raise $200,000 to cover the costs for ONE Roosevelt Scholarship Program student to begin studying at FDR in the 2023-24 school year.
