Cancer For College provides scholarships and financial support to help cancer survivors pursue higher education. They've awarded over 2,000 scholarships totaling $8 million since 1993, with 98% of their scholars graduating from college.

The organization also offers medical debt relief to help survivors and their families address overwhelming medical bills from cancer treatment. Beyond financial support, they provide educational workshops, mentorship programs, networking opportunities, and wellness support through partnerships.

Their scholars maintain an average GPA of 3.78, and many are first-generation college students from families with average incomes around $49,000. One application makes you eligible for multiple scholarship opportunities, and they work to remove barriers that prevent cancer survivors from achieving their educational dreams.
