Pickett & Hatcher Educational Fund
Since 1938, thousands of college students have benefited through the student loan program created by the generosity of Claud A. Hatcher, President of Nehi Corporation which became Royal Crown Cola Company. Sixty-nine years later the Fund still operates as a nonprofit private foundation granting low interest rate student loans to qualified individuals who otherwise might not be able to attend college.
Eligibility Requirements for a Student Loan

* Full-time student (12 hours per term) enrolled in classroom instructional credit hours on the campus of a 4-year college or university located in the United States. A loan cannot be made if you will be enrolled in a vocational or technical school/college, a two-year college, at a branch campus, or an online-program. Loans are not available for a first-time applicant to study abroad.
* Enrolled in a bachelor's degree program with a broad liberal education component. Borrowers who have an undergraduate loan with the Fund will be considered for a graduate study loan if they will be enrolled for 9 or more classroom instructional credit hours.
