About Us
Who We Are
The Reagan Leadership Program is an academic program that seeks to train the next generation of leaders. We are affiliated with Eureka College, a small liberal arts college in central Illinois. We award selected students a four-year full-tuition scholarship. In addition, we provide our Reagan Fellows with hands on leadership training, professional mentorship experiences in their chosen fields of study, and the chance to travel the world.
Where We’re From
The Reagan Leadership Program includes 19 student fellows, including our incoming cohort for Fall 2025. Our fellows come from across the country, including from Illinois as well as Arizona, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Montana, and Missouri. Our alumni have settled and now work in 37 states, as well as the District of Columbia, France, and South Korea. We also partner with Eureka College’s Disciples of Christ Leadership Program, which includes three additional student fellows from Arizona, North Carolina, and Texas.
