Over Fifty Scholarship Opportunities for Local Students
Fayette County, Pa. (Jan. 4, 2022) – The Community Foundation of Fayette County (CFFC) awards scholarships to support local students in their pursuit of post-secondary education. Over fifty (50) applications are now available for the 2022-2023 school year. Applicants will create an account in CFFC’s online scholarship software and complete an eligibility quiz to determine which scholarships match their qualifications.
The application deadline is March 31, 2022. Students can access the scholarship software on the Scholarships page at www.cffayettepa.org. Applicants may be high school seniors, current post-secondary students, or adults wishing to continue their education.
CFFC scholarship opportunities are made possible by generous donors who create scholarship funds, often to honor or memorialize someone special in their lives, to support students, and to give back to the community. The criteria for these scholarships may include field of study, specific post-secondary schools, GPA, participation in sports or the arts, community service hours, and more.
“We encourage local students to take advantage of CFFC’s scholarship program. The donors who have created these funds have set a variety of criteria, so it’s likely that there’s something for everybody,” said Executive Director Renee Couser.
In 2021, CFFC awarded over $160,000 in post-secondary scholarships.
