scholarship fund

Student aid pool

A scholarship fund is a pool of money set aside to pay for students' education.

Schools, foundations, companies, and individuals establish scholarship funds to support students who meet certain criteria—academic achievement, financial need, athletic ability, or membership in particular groups.

The alumni association created a scholarship fund for first-generation college students.
