How do I apply to be a U.S. Presidential Scholar?
Application is by invitation only. We invite students to apply based on their scores on the SAT or ACT exam or their nomination by a Chief State School Officer (CSSO—The CSSO is the individual who heads each state education agency or state Department of Education.) or nomination from one of our partner recognition organizations, during the year of their graduation from high school; to be eligible for the program, candidates must be U.S. citizens or legal permanent U.S. residents. Students who meet all qualifications will automatically be sent program notification and a unique nomination ID in January of 2022. Students who were not U.S. citizens or legal permanent U.S. residents on the day they took SAT or ACT exam but will be U.S. citizens or legal permanent U.S. residents by the application deadline date, or who requested that The College Board or ACT not release their scores to outside entities, should contact the U.S. Presidential Scholars Program at 507-931-8345 (once the candidate list has been posted) to ensure their scores are considered in the determination of the candidate pool.

How do I apply to be a U.S. Presidential Scholar in Career and Technical Education?
Students are nominated through their Chief State School Officer (CSSO). Each CSSO may nominate up to five candidates from their jurisdiction. The CSSO is the individual who heads each state education agency or state Department of Education.
