Applicants may attend an accredited college or university of their choice. Candidates must have and maintain a GPA of 2.5 or higher and have a demonstrated record of community involvement. Academic achievement, leadership, and financial need are also required.

The Bill Dickey Scholarship Association is a non-profit organization that was formed to promote the sport of golf among students, focusing on young minority golfers with the goal to increase their numbers in golf while pursuing an education through support and financial assistance. Since its beginning in 1984, the organization has awarded scholarships to over 1000 college student golfers.
The deadline for this scholarship is usually in MAY of each year, and the award amount is usually $14,000.
