MONDELEZ INTERNATIONAL HBCU SCHOLARS PROGRAM
The TMCF Mondelez International HBCU Scholars program is a four-year needs-based scholarship for students attending TMCF member schools. Rising freshmen who apply as high school seniors form a cohort of 15 and receive an award of $9K per year for up to four years. In addition to the formation of a scholarship, Mondelez International requires an immersive experience to commence during their sophomore year. This experience, referred to as the TMCF-Mondelez Immersion Bootcamp, is part of a professional development strategy designed to acquaint HBCU students with career pathways and opportunities with Mondelez-partnered companies. The program design includes guided/self-guided online professional development modules, Gallup assessment and coaching, and an immersion bootcamp.
