These Team Members were selected out of 14,000 applicants around the country to receive $2,500 to begin or continue their education at the educational institute of their choice.  Each of Chick-fil-A’s 2021 scholarship recipients was nominated by their restaurant’s independent franchise operator and were chosen from thousands of team member students throughout the country to receive this scholarship based on factors like leadership and community involvement in addition to academic achievement.
Chick-fil-A expanded its scholarship initiative this year, giving team members nationwide a total of nearly $19 million in 2021, bringing Chick-fil-A to more than $100 million in scholarships since the program began almost fifty (50) years ago. These funds can be used at any accredited institute of higher education. Whether they choose online, two-year, technical programs, or traditional college experiences, Chick-fil-A team members have the flexibility to get the education that’s right for them. And, all Chick-fil-A team members, whether they receive these scholarship funds or not, can get discounts at more than 70 schools through the scholarship initiative.
