The Harlem rapper just announced a full four-year tuition scholarship for one student heading to the Roc Nation School of Music, Sports & Entertainment at Long Island University in Brooklyn.
The scholarship will be given to a first-time freshman student, allowing them to attend the school starting in the fall of 2027, with the aim of pursuing a career in the entertainment industry. Applications are open, with a closing deadline of December 15, 2026. A$AP Rocky isn’t alone in supporting the school’s students; other artists, athletes and entertainment leaders have established scholarships there, including producer DJ Khaled, rapper Megan Thee Stallion, NBA star LaMelo Ball, and producer/engineer Young Guru, who also serves as Director of the Music Technology, Entrepreneurship & Production program.
The school also provides Roc Nation Hope Scholarships to 25 percent of enrolled students, enabling recipients to graduate with a four-year full-tuition scholarship. Hope Scholars are selected from a pool of academically competitive, New York-based, first-time freshmen with the highest financial need.
