Regional Talent Centers

The Foundation collaborates with regional talent centers at Duke, Johns Hopkins, and Northwestern Universities, and the University of Denver to inform students, families, and schools about the Young Scholars Program and answer related inquiries.

However, applicants need not be part of the talent centers' programs to be eligible for or participate in the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation Young Scholars Program.

If you have questions about the Young Scholars Program, please click on the state in which you reside, and you will be directed to the contact information for the regional talent center best able to assist you.
