Published: 12/19/2016

Scholarship applications for the 2017-18 academic year at St. Charles Community College are now available. Students who complete the application will be eligible for both SCC Foundation and Board of Trustee scholarships, based on specific award criteria. More than $175,000 in Foundation and Board of Trustee scholarships will be awarded for the upcoming academic year.

“There are several different types of scholarships available at SCC, so we really encourage students to take the time to apply,” said Betsy Schneider, SCC director of development. “Receiving a scholarship can help students to succeed in reaching their goals, or can make college a reality for someone who may not otherwise be able to afford it.”

Application packets can be found at stchas.edu/scholarships. Packets are due by 4:30 p.m. Thursday, March 1, 2017, to Enrollment Services in ADM 1113.

The SCC Board of Trustees makes scholarships available for students, and the SCC Foundation scholarships are made possible by proceeds raised at events and by donations from businesses and individuals who believe in keeping a high-quality education within reach for students.

The St. Charles Community College Foundation, a not-for-profit organization, raises funds to support student scholarships and educational programs for the college. For more information on the SCC Foundation and its vision to transform lives and strengthen communities, visit stchas.edu/foundation.
