The Chick Evans Scholarship for Caddies is a full tuition and housing, four-year college scholarship for golf caddies. For more than 90 years, the Western Golf Association has overseen the Evans Scholars Program, which is among the nation’s largest privately funded scholarship programs. It is named in honor of legendary amateur golfer Chick Evans, whose charitable legacy was to help send deserving caddies to college.
Recipients of this prestigious scholarship are nominated by the sponsoring country club where they caddied. Applicants are evaluated and selected based on four criteria: strong caddie record, excellent academics, financial need and outstanding character.
Saint Ignatius College Prep, a Jesuit Catholic school in the heart of Chicago, is a diverse community dedicated to educating young men and women for lives of faith, love, service and leadership.
