Types of Scholarships

Scholarships offered through the Foundation are classified as endowed and annual. Only the interest earned on endowed gifts may be used for scholarships. Annual scholarships must be funded each year. Applications for Foundation scholarships are available through the guidance counselors’ office of area high schools and the Financial Aid Office of the College. Applications must be submitted to the Financial Aid Office no later than April 15 each year.

How to Apply

Scholarship applicants must submit FAFSA paperwork through the College’s Financial Aid Office to determine their financial need and/or academic promise. Selection is determined by the College’s Scholarship Committee and is based on the applicant’s interest, ability to succeed at the college level and, if appropriate, need for financial support.
