The Common Knowledge
Scholarship Foundation (CKSF) awards scholarships through Internet-based
quiz competitions. CKSF rewards students for demonstrating what they
know through the use of objective competitions. Our scholarship winners
are most often participants that have well-rounded, practical knowledge,
and not necessarily those with the highest academic standing.
Our Mission is to create scholarship opportunities in which participants
of all levels have a fair and equal chance at winning money to help pay
for higher education.
