CV NEWSFEED// CatholicVote has announced that it is once again partnering with the Foundation for the Restoration of America (FFROA) on their Constitution Studies program, in which students who take free online courses can apply for scholarships of up to $10,000. The funds can be used for tuition at universities, colleges, private high schools, and even trade schools.
“A republic cannot flourish without citizens formed in the virtues of truth, justice, and liberty,” said Kelsey Reinhardt, President of CatholicVote. “Understanding the Constitution is not just about knowing our rights—it’s about preparing the next generation to defend the dignity of the person and the common good. We’re honored to help students pursue an education worthy of their calling as free and faithful Americans.”
The deadline to apply for the first round of program scholarships is Thursday, June 31 at 11:59 p.m. That will be followed by a second round of scholarships with an application deadline of Saturday, January 31, 2026 at 11:59 p.m.
Scholarship winners will be announced approximately 60 days after each deadline.
To be eligible to participate in, an applicant must be an American citizen, age 16 or older, and currently enrolled in public or private high school, homeschool, college/university, or trade school.
FFROA plans to award a total of 38 individual scholarships, including two $10,000 scholarships, two $5,000 scholarships, two $3,000 scholarships, and thirty-two $2,000 scholarships.
Which scholarships students are eligible for depends on the completion of online courses being offered free of charge by Hillsdale College.
Students seeking a $2,000 or $3,000 scholarship are required to take Hillsdale’s Introduction To The Constitution and Constitution 101 courses, pass a test on what they’ve learned, download certificates of completion and submit the certificates with their application.
To qualify for a $5,000 or $10,000 scholarship, applicants must take an additional course from a menu of five that are available: The U.S. Supreme Court, The Federalist Papers, The Presidency and the Constitution, Congress: How it Worked and Why It Doesn’t, or Constitution 201: The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism.
Students who do not win a scholarship in the first round are eligible to apply for the next round or any round thereafter. Complete eligibility and other details can be found at the FFROA website.
