At Junior Achievement of Arizona, we empower the next generation to succeed by giving students the tools they need to pursue and accomplish their goals. Sometimes post-secondary education is necessary for students to land their dream jobs, and for some, a scholarship can make the difference between attending college or skipping it altogether. That’s why we’re happy to share this scholarship opportunity from Toyota.
The Toyota Scholarship Program will provide up to 50 awards of $7,500 to high school seniors, high school graduates, current post-secondary undergraduate students, or graduate students. The award must be applied towards undergraduate or graduate school related expenses at an accredited two- or four-year college, university, professional school, or vocational-technical school in the United States for the 2025-2026 academic year. Awards may be renewed for up to three additional continuous years of study, which means a student can receive a maximum scholarship of $30,000 distributed over four years.
