The scholarship program attracts thousands of students each year, each of whom learns about President Coolidge and his values through the course of applying for the scholarship. The Coolidge Foundation conducts a rigorous, multi-stage, review process that culminates with interviews with a finalist jury. Since 2016, thirty-two Coolidge Scholarships have been awarded. Finalists are also awarded a smaller one-time scholarship. The chief criterion is academic excellence. Secondary criteria include interest in policy, appreciation of the values Coolidge championed, humility, and service.

    Expenses $1,292,395 · Grants $1,148,466

  • The Coolidge Foundation hosts programs around the country that seek to educate and to perpetuate the memory and legacy of President Calvin Coolidge.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
