Scholarships

A scholarship is considered a gift of money to assist a student in financing their higher education. The requirements and amount available for individual awards vary, and many do not require the student to be financial aid eligible.

Each year, through generous contributions from donors, Southwestern College offers a wide variety of scholarships for enrolled students. The application period is during September (fall) and February (spring) each year and the process is entirely online.

The Spring scholarship application period has ended.
Notifications will be sent Mid-April
Please return in the Fall 2021 semester for our new cycle!
