What is a Scholarship?

For colleges and universities, scholarships are financial aid awards designed to help students pay for an undergraduate degree. Sometimes a scholarship is a one-time check. Other school scholarships are renewable and provide money for students each semester or school year. These awards differ from student loans in that they don't have to be repaid.

There are many different scholarships available for the post high school education. Each scholarship has various requirements that need to be met. All local scholarships are posted to Scholarships and Financial Aid Google Classroom for Seniors.
