The SAGE Scholars Educational Foundation is a non-profit organization established in 2018 to work alongside SAGE Scholars, Inc. as an advocate and promoter of access to high-quality, affordable, private college education.

From the beginning, SAGE Scholars Educational Foundation has hit the ground running, developing solutions and funding opportunities for SAGE Scholars Students interested in or already attending member colleges and universities across the nation.

• $1,000,000 Pledge

  To achieve SAGE Scholars goal of access and affordability, a pledge of one million dollars in hard dollar scholarships was made to the Educational Foundation with the mission of helping families bridge the gap between what schools are able to offer in financial aid and the cost of tuition, room and board, and additional expenses.

• Dr. James B. Johnston Scholarship

  SAGE Scholars Educational Foundation’s annual Dr. James B. Johnston Scholarship Essay Competition offers hard dollar scholarships to SAGE Scholars students who submit winning essays and attend a member college or university after graduation.

• Legend Scholars

  SAGE Scholars proudly recognizes visionary leaders who have devoted their lives to the purpose of promoting the values and affordability of private higher education. It is our honor to dedicate scholarships in their names through our SAGE Scholars Educational Foundation.

• SAGE Secure

  SAGE Scholars believes in assisting our students when they need it most. The SAGE Secure Scholarship is the first no-cost accidental death benefit for the family of students enrolled in a SAGE Scholars member college or university.

At SAGE Scholars, we know that when students submit their Tuition Rewards Points and matriculate into one of our high-quality, affordable, member private colleges, our commitment doesn’t end there. That’s why we’ve continued, every year, to find ways — like our Educational Foundation - to make private college more affordable for students and their families.
