2026 marks the CSF’s 30th anniversary of awarding scholarships to students just like you!  To mark this monumental occasion, we’ve set a goal to recognize the largest group of recognized scholars to date!  To do this, we need your help!

Take a few minutes to complete the 2026 Carson Scholar recognition application that you’ll receive via email.  All you have to do is answer a few questions that help us get to know you, upload a current report card and input your current service activities! 

Please remember, there is no monetary award associated with Carson Scholar Recognition, but this program provides the opportunity to continue to be recognized amongst like-minded peers.  Recognized Carson Scholars still get invited to a banquet and receive the honor of being called multi-time Carson Scholars.

If you aren’t sure if we have the correct email address for you, or if you don’t receive the recognition application via email, please contact us at scholarship@carsonscholars.org.

All applications are due by 11:59 pm EST on Sunday, January 11, 2026.
