The Patrick Horsman Grant is a twice-annual $2,500 scholarship for undergraduates with the ambition to become entrepreneurs. Founded by investor and entrepreneur Patrick B. Horsman, it rewards drive, vision, and a serious commitment to education.
Patrick Horsman is a successful American entrepreneur and investor with a passion for leadership, education, and cultivating talent. Across two decades he has built businesses in hedge funds, private equity, real estate, and digital assets, and throughout his career he has helped young, ambitious people find their footing in the world of business and entrepreneurship.
In 2021 he established the Patrick Horsman Entrepreneurship Scholarship, known simply as the Patrick Horsman Grant, to help future entrepreneurs with the cost of college tuition and fees. Applications for the next series of awards are open now.
Each grant is worth $2,500, paid toward tuition and fees, and awarded to one deserving student per cycle.
Two separate grants are awarded annually, once in spring and summer, and once in fall and winter.
No lengthy forms. A short, honest essay on why you want to be an entrepreneur is what matters most.
The Patrick Horsman Grant is part of Patrick's wider philanthropic work through Patrick Horsman Giving, which also supports Paradiso College Preparatory, a tuition-free charter school network in Puerto Rico.
