Now Accepting Scholarship Applications

The Community Foundation of NCW is now accepting scholarship applications for students who plan to attend community college, university, or trade school in Fall 2022.

Over 130 scholarships are available to high school seniors, current college students, and non-traditional students, each with unique criteria and award amounts. Most scholarships seek to support students who have served their community, show growth and potential, and demonstrate financial need.

The application process is completed online. An eligibility quiz helps students determine the scholarships for which they are eligible to apply. The online process also allows students to apply for multiple scholarships at one time.

Application deadline for most scholarships is March 1st. Students may need FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) or other financial information to complete the application, as well as letters of recommendations from teachers and mentors, SAT scores (for some), and school transcripts, so proper planning is highly recommended.

“All of our scholarships have been established by people in our region who care about helping local students achieve their education dreams” said Julie Mott, scholarship program specialist. “Each was created with a certain student in mind, so there is really something for everyone. We encourage anyone who plans on going to college or trade school this fall to apply.”

Last year, over a $1M in scholarships was awarded to students across North Central Washington.

Ahora aceptamos solicitudes de becas

La Community Foundation of NCW ahora está aceptando solicitudes de becas para estudiantes que planean asistir a un colegio comunitario, universidad o escuela vocacional en el otoño de 2022.

Hay más de 130 becas disponibles para estudiantes de último año de secundaria, estudiantes universitarios actuales y estudiantes no tradicionales, cada uno con criterios y montos de premios únicos. La mayoría de las becas buscan apoyar a los estudiantes que han servido a su comunidad, muestran crecimiento y potencial, y demuestran necesidad financiera.

El proceso de solicitud se completa en línea. Un cuestionario de elegibilidad ayuda a los estudiantes a determinar las becas para las que son elegibles para solicitar. El proceso en línea también permite a los estudiantes solicitar varias becas al mismo tiempo.

La fecha límite de solicitud para la mayoría de las becas es el 1 de marzo. Los estudiantes pueden necesitar FAFSA u otra información financiera para completar la solicitud, así como cartas de recomendación de maestros y mentores, puntajes SAT (para algunos) y transcripciones escolares, por lo que se recomienda una planificación adecuada.

“Todas nuestras becas han sido establecidas por personas en nuestra región que se preocupan por ayudar a los estudiantes locales a lograr sus sueños educativos”, dijo Julie Mott, especialista en programas de becas. “Cada uno fue creado con un determinado estudiante en mente, por lo que realmente hay algo para todos. Alentamos a cualquier persona que planee ir a la universidad o a una escuela de oficios este otoño a postularse”.

El año pasado, se otorgaron más de $ 1 millón en becas a estudiantes en todo el centro norte de Washington.

Aero Methow Rescue Service

GRANT RECIPIENT

Due to being rural, remote, and geographically isolated, we must be prepared to do more than respond to emergencies. We have become a healthcare partner who fills gaps in service. The grant allowed our board the time and ability to work with a Strategic Planner to modify our plan to address those gaps.

My father was a migrant agricultural worker who eventually started his own cherry and apple orchard. He told me if I wanted to live a better life, I had to get an education. I plan on starting a career with the Chelan PUD with a passion for renewable energy and in turn give back to my parents and community for supporting my dreams.
