Scholarships Available To Fayette County Students

by | Dec 12, 2013

The Community Foundation of Fayette County (CFFC) has many scholarship opportunities available to Fayette County residents. In 2014, CFFC awarded over $125,000 to high school seniors and college students enrolled for the 2014-2015 school year.  Thank you to all of our donors who have made this possible.

Criteria vary for each scholarship fund.  There are awards for students pursuing various careers, including nursing, music education, education, international studies or culinary arts.  Some awards are designated to students planning to attend a specific school. Some awards are based on GPA, financial need and others are not.  All students residing in Fayette County are eligible to apply.

In addition, through the Community Foundation’s partnership with the Pennsylvania Access to Higher Education Program (PATH), match money may be available for students attending a college in Pennsylvania.

2015 Scholarship Applications must be postmarked from January 2 to March 27, 2015 unless otherwise stated on the application.

If you would like to create or donate to one of our scholarship funds, please contact Renee M. Couser, Director, Donor Relations at 724-437-8600.
