Travis Scott is making sure hundreds of Black college students walk across the commencement stage with their diploma ... with a 7-figure donation.

The rapper awarded $1 million in scholarships to 100 students at HBCUs who are on track to graduate in the Class of 2022 ... ensuring they cross the finish line & aren't affected by last-minute financial hurdles.

The soon-to-be grads are each getting a $10,000 scholarship from Travis' previously-established Waymon Webster Scholarship Fund & the recipients finished their final semester with at least a 3.5 GPA.


Among the scholars ... Florida A&M University pharmacy major Nisha Encarnacion, who is from the U.S. Virgin Islands & paid her own way through college while supporting her mother & daughter, Fisk University computer science major Chisom Okwor, whose goal is to help transform developing countries in Africa & North Carolina Central University broadcast journalism major Jordan Massey, who took on a ton of debt to get his communications degree.


Travis' sister, Jordan Webster, manages the scholarship fund ... an

d she recently graduated as well, with a degree from Howard University.


Travis' donations went to seniors at 38 HBCUs ... including Alabama A&M University, Central State University, Jackson State University, Morehouse College, Texas Southern University, Grambling State University, Xavier University of Louisiana & Prairie View A&M University.

The $1 million worth of scholarships is part of Travis' Project HEAL, which as we first reported, was announced back in March & included $5 million in earmarks.

Remember ... Project HEAL was one of Travis' first public philanthropic since the tragic Astroworld concert last November, which saw 10 people die as a result of injuries sustained during Travis' set.
