Search for Scholarships and Awards
We are currently updating our scholarship database for the next scholarship season, which opens in Fall 2022. If you research opportunities before November 1, 2022, please know that details may change. Check back on November 1 or sign up to get an email as soon as scholarships are ready to accept applications.
As of 2021, more than 40 of our online applications for graduating high school seniors and vocational, undergraduate, and graduate students have been merged into one Consolidated Scholarship Application (see full list). This means that completing this one application automatically puts you in the running for any and all scholarships in this group for which you are eligible. The included scholarships are marked with an asterisk(*) below.
You must apply separately for any scholarships that do not have an asterisk.
Whether applying for opportunities within the Consolidated Application or outside it, the search section below remains your starting point, and each of your search hits links to a summary page with application instructions.
You can search scholarships by keyword or first letter — or filter by category. You can also browse opportunities in our printable PDF catalog of scholarships.
