A Guide to Scholarships
Consider resources in your community. Additional scholarships may be found by doing research at your local library, high school guidance office, religious organizations, employer, and community service organizations
(i.e. Kiwanis, Lions Club, Rotary, church, etc.).
All scholarships are advertised as they become available. Information and applications will be posted on the College website and student portal at that time. Scholarships are divided between fall and spring semesters unless otherwise designated by the donor.
We DO NOT recommend that students seek the help of private companies for scholarship searches.
These companies prove to be costly and produce no greater results.
