THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING
We are grateful for your support in bringing another year of the Ron H. Olson Annual Scholarship to HCA apartment communities across California! Who would have known we’d reach nearly 10,000 units of housing when we launched our very first scholarship program back in 2006. Learn more about where we came from and where we hope to go from 2024 onwards…

“The HCA Scholarship has helped me be more financially flexible and comfortable while pursuing my studies and extracurriculars like volunteer work and internships. Coming from a disadvantaged community, I never believed that I would be awarded a scholarship like the one the HCA Scholarship has awarded me, so I believe that everyone regardless of how you may perceive yourself should apply."
