Scholarships from Outside Agencies

Scholarships are an excellent way to help you afford college.

The availability of scholarships varies depending on several factors, including the educational institution, program of study and funding source. It’s important for students to research and explore various scholarship opportunities early and often to increase their chances of securing additional financial aid. Several websites offer free scholarship searches, including Fastweb Scholarship Search, College Board’s Big Future Scholarship Search, and the U.S. Department of Labor’s Free Scholarship search tool. Also check out your public library’s reference section, local businesses or civic groups, and organizations related to your field of interest.

Additional outside agency scholarships are listed below. Scholarship announcements are also posted in the Financial Aid Office located in the Admissions Center.

Please note that requirements and eligibility for outside agency scholarships are set by the provider.
