A Flight Away
A scholarship for students heading out of state, funded by those who've done it before.
The A Flight Away Scholarship helps students cover the relocation, housing, and travel costs of attending college out of state. It is funded by parents and alumni who once made the same leap.
What We Do
We believe geography should never limit potential.
So we help students take that first step across state lines by:
Offering scholarships to cover out-of-state transition costs
Connecting students with donors who've walked the same path
Building a national community that pays the opportunity forward
Why It Matters
Out-of-state students often face higher tuition, travel, and housing costs — even if they qualify academically. These costs stop thousands from attending their dream school every year. That's where we come in.
We bridge the gap with targeted scholarships funded by people who've been there before — parents and alumni who know how life-changing an out-of-state education can be.
Real Impact
Our scholarships give students the chance to take that first step across state lines, opening doors to new opportunities and experiences. The impact is best told through the voices of our recipients:
"I couldn't afford the move to college, even though I got in. This scholarship helped me believe I belonged."
