The top 20 national finalists will participate in a Leadership Weekend in Chicago and receive $30,000 scholarships. The remaining 480 runners-up will receive $4,000 scholarships.
The MVS scholarship is available to high school seniors who are United States citizens. Applicants do not need to be related to a member of the Elks. Judging is based on academics, leadership, service, and financial need. Winners will be announced in April 2026.
This year, the Elks National Foundation is investing nearly $4.3 million in college scholarships.
