Edison International Public Scholarship
The Edison International Public Scholarship rewards public high school students who show potential for a successful college career and have a financial need. The scholarship is part of Edison's 45-year tradition of investing in the future by making the dream of a college education a reality for deserving students.
Awards
Each award recipient will receive a $2,500 award, renewable for up to three additional years or until a bachelor's degree is earned, whichever occurs first. Total award per recipient over four years is $10,000.
Up to 30 awards will be granted each year, and awards are for undergraduate study only.
Award renewal is contingent upon satisfactory academic performance and continued full-time enrollment in one of the designated fields of study at one of the eligible colleges or universities, and continuation of the program by Edison International.
Scholarship recipients may be offered internship or summer employment opportunities with Southern California Edison.
