Information And Eligibility:
The LinkedIn Possibilities in Tech Scholarship is designed to support students with bold ambitions who are pursuing careers in technology. Created to expand access to the tech workforce, this scholarship goes beyond financial support by offering long-term guidance, skill development, and a strong sense of community. The program recognizes that success in technology is not only about technical ability, but also about persistence, confidence, and access to the right resources over time.

Unlike traditional one-time scholarships, the LinkedIn Possibilities in Tech Scholarship provides recipients with up to four years of structured support. Scholars participate in community-building opportunities, receive college navigation assistance, and engage in technical training experiences that help them remain on track academically and professionally. This multi-year approach is designed to address common barriers students face while pursuing tech-related degrees, including lack of mentorship, limited professional networks, and challenges navigating higher education systems.

The scholarship is centered around four core pillars of persistence that guide programming and support throughout the student’s academic journey. These pillars focus on helping students stay engaged in their studies, develop relevant technical skills, build professional confidence, and connect with peers who share similar goals. Through workshops, mentorship, and skill-building experiences, scholars gain exposure to real-world technology pathways and career possibilities.

Recipients benefit from a supportive cohort environment that encourages collaboration, personal growth, and accountability. The program emphasizes belonging and community, recognizing that representation and connection play a critical role in long-term success in tech fields. By fostering meaningful relationships with mentors, peers, and industry professionals, the scholarship helps students envision themselves thriving in technology-driven careers.

The LinkedIn Possibilities in Tech Scholarship is well-suited for students who are curious, motivated, and eager to explore opportunities in technology-related disciplines. Scholars are encouraged to dream big, take initiative, and develop both technical and professional skills that will serve them throughout college and into their careers. The program supports students as they grow academically, personally, and professionally, helping them translate their interests into tangible career pathways.

Financial assistance provided through the scholarship helps reduce the burden of education-related expenses, allowing students to focus on learning and skill development.
