Comcast NBCUniversal Awards $155,000 in Scholarships to 62 High School Seniors Across Greater Philadelphia, New Jersey and Northern Delaware

May 28, 2020

Comcast NBCUniversal today announced it has awarded approximately $155,000 in scholarships for the 2020-2021 school year to 62 students across Southeast Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and northern Delaware as part of its annual Leaders and Achievers® Scholarship Program. Students are selected for their outstanding community service, academic performance, and leadership skills. The award, funded by the Comcast NBCUniversal Foundation, is a one-time, $2,500 scholarship to be used toward undergraduate education-related expenses. Since 2001, more than $34 million has been awarded to about 30,000 high school seniors across the country as part of the Leaders and Achievers program.

“We are honored to recognize the amazing achievements of our Leaders and Achievers Scholarship winners and to help them further their education,” said Stephanie L. Kosta, Vice President of Government and Regulatory Affairs for Comcast’s Freedom Region. “They are top achievers in academics, leaders in the community, and leaders among their peers. They represent our future, and Comcast NBCUniversal is proud to support them.”

The scholarship recipients are planning to enroll in some of the top colleges and universities around the Region and the country including Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, Columbia University, MIT, and Harvard University, to name a few.

The Comcast Leaders and Achievers Scholarship Program recognizes high school seniors for their community service, academic performance, and leadership skills. These scholarships are provided to give young people the opportunity to continue their education to better compete in tomorrow’s workplace.  Applicants to the Comcast Leaders and Achievers Scholarship Program must demonstrate academic excellence, commitment to community service, and outstanding qualities in character, integrity, and leadership.
