About Foundation Scholarships

Scholarship applications are typically accepted each year during winter quarter, and provide funding for the next academic year. (fall, winter, spring and summer quarters)

Available scholarships are based on:

  • Program of study – Business, Music, Nursing, STEM, Vocational and many others
  • Merit - GPA
  • Need – based on Estimated Family Contribution as determined by FAFSA or WASFA
  • Community Service and or Leadership
  • Enrollment – Part time and full time

Every year scholarship recipients are honored for their accomplishments and have the opportunity to meet and thank their sponsors at an Annual Scholarship Social. Since the pandemic began in 2020, the Scholarship Social has not been held. However, we have continued the tradition of publishing the Scholarship Social booklet.
