Scholarship information

 

 

Local Scholarship information will be posted to the Senior Google Classroom as information is received by the guidance office. Scholarships can also be found in the monthly Scholarship Bulletin.   The Bulletin is organized by due date.  This list is constantly updated to include the latest information available.  We advise you to check back regularly to see what's new.  If you need a transcript for your scholarship application, please see your counselor.

Students are also encouraged to utilize one of the many scholarship websites to discover additional opportunities.  Fastweb.com  and  studentscholarships.org are two excellent resources. 

 

All students should complete the FAFSA as soon as possible during senior year.  A copy of a parent's latest tax returns is necessary to complete the FAFSA.  We will be sponsoring a FAFSA completion night on November 3, 2022.  If you bring your tax information, we will have financial aid officers to help you finish and submit your FAFSA. Please contact your counselor for more information.

The federal government awards around $125 billion in student aid every year in the form of grants, loans, and work-study, and some portion of that money could be yours.

The FAFSA also considers several other factors along with income. So even if you think your family makes “too much money” to qualify for aid, you should always apply anyway. After all, the form is free, and you really don’t have anything to lose.  

Even if you are not eligible for a federal grant, you might still be awarded work-study or federal loans, which usually offer lower rates and gentler repayment terms than anything you can get from a private bank or other lender.
