Lilly Endowment Inc. awards full-tuition scholarships to students from each county in Indiana. These scholarships are awarded through and administered by the network of community foundations throughout the state. ICI oversees the statewide administration of the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship Program.

These four-year tuition scholarships are for undergraduate study in baccalaureate programs at any four-year college or university in the state. Required fees and an annual $800 book stipend are also included. Deadlines and selection procedures, as well as the criteria used for determining who is eligible for the scholarship, vary from county to county. In all circumstances, applicants must be Indiana residents, must be graduates of accredited Indiana high schools, and must use the scholarship to earn a baccalaureate degree in Indiana. Students currently in high school should ask their counselors about applications for the program. Persons who have previously graduated from high school but who are now interested in attending college should contact their community foundation to determine whether they will be eligible based on local criteria.

During the first 8 years of the program, 2,265 students have received Lilly Endowment Community Scholarships. Scholars are attending 40 different colleges in the state of Indiana.
