“The Imagine America
Foundation has been doing research and
producing some research studies that have
really been cutting-edge in the sense of
research that hasn’t been done previously and
that really, for the point of view of
policymakers, gives information that has not
been out there before.”

"We love to be able to offer this to the student because we know that a
lot of these students [are] sometimes ... the first generation that is actually
attending college, so the parents aren't familiar with how much it costs
or ways to fund it, so this is very welcomed."

state, and a lot of the scholarships that I could be eligible for I couldn't
get because I was moving to this state. So I was happy to get the Imagine America scholarship."

"Because the Imagine America scholarship will allow the students here going
on to a two-year program or two-year propriety schools pursue a higher education,
an Associate degree, that can go on to a Bachelor's degree. More importantly,
they can be gainfully employed a lot quicker than those going to a four-year
traditional college or university because the jobs are out there."

"Number one, it's given us a different light to them, in the sense that we are
out giving some scholarship money. Two, it's made them think of us. Because
before, they're not thinking of us, they're thinking of colleges and universities,
more of the traditional higher education, and it's a way for them to step
back and say wait a minute, there is a scholarship program here, that you
are gifted in art, whatever the field they're going into. And so it's made
them stop and think."
Frank Longaker
President, National College
“The Imagine America Foundation’s assistance to students in the Career College sector and the important research done by the IAF has the full support of National College and whatever resources we can allocate. When we evaluated all the worthwhile organizations we could help, no other group came close to matching the philosophies we wanted to advance through the College’s giving. The IAF will continue to be at the top of our preferred recipient organizations.”
Sharonda Davis

“When they (Imagine America Foundation) told me I was coming here (Washington, D.C.), I cried. I have a sister that goes to Concorde with me, and she said, 'Well, I think you should apply.’ I did it and when I won, she cried.”
Garrett Gordon
2008 Imagine America Promise recipient, Kaplan College, Hagerstown, MD
“Because I do not have the financial funds needed to cover the cost of higher education, the support from this scholarship will help me greatly by allowing me to concentrate more on coursework without having to worry as much about finances.”
