A$AP Rocky has announced a four-year, full-tuition scholarship for a first-time freshman who will attend the Roc Nation School of Music, Sports & Entertainment at Long Island University (LIU).
The scholarship was announced on October 6, 2026, and is open to students planning to begin their studies in Fall 2027. Applications are now open and must be submitted by December 15, 2026.
Students interested in applying can submit their applications through the Roc Nation School application portal. The scholarship will give one student the opportunity to complete a four-year education at the school without paying tuition.
In a statement released through LIU, Rocky said he believes in giving talented young people the opportunity to create their own path and turn their ideas into something real.
Rocky is joining a growing list of artists and entertainment figures who have supported scholarships at the Roc Nation School. Other scholarship supporters include Megan Thee Stallion, DJ Khaled, LaMelo Ball and Young Guru.
The Roc Nation School began enrolling students at LIU in Fall 2021. It offers programs connected to music, sports, entertainment, performance and entrepreneurship, with students also receiving opportunities to build professional networks and gain practical experience.
The school also runs the Roc Nation Hope Scholarship, a separate program that provides tuition support to 25% of students in each incoming class. The Hope Scholars are selected from academically competitive, New York-based first-time freshmen with high financial need.
Applications for A$AP Rocky's scholarship remain open until December 15, 2026, giving prospective students an opportunity to apply for a full-tuition place at the Roc Nation School for the 2027 academic year.
