Robertson Scholars Leadership Program

The Robertson Scholars Leadership Program invests in young leaders who are committed to making transformational contributions to society. The Robertson Scholars Leadership Program’s investment begins with the selection of a diverse community of students at UNC and Duke who demonstrate extraordinary potential. We provide young leaders with exceptional benefits and a distinctive set of shared experiences- A four-year scholarship, including undergraduate tuition, room and board, and most fees - Unique access to the academic and extracurricular offerings at both Duke and UNC-Chapel Hill - Three summers of domestic and international experiences - Leadership and professional development opportunities - Extensive community of Robertson Scholars, alumni, and staff During this journey, Robertson Scholars learn to create change, foster collaboration, turn their passions into action, and have a tangible impact in their communities. The experience of being a Robertson Scholar helps students become thoughtful, creative, lifelong contributors to society — the kind of citizens and leaders prepared to meet the unprecedented challenges of our interdependent world. Ultimately, the Robertson Program measures its success by the quality, scale, and uniqueness of the work that its leaders do in the world.
