Private Scholarships

Explore all of your funding options.

Organizations of all types and sizes sponsor scholarships. Explore local organizations you might not have considered, such as religious, community service, fraternal, military, union and professional. In addition, many large companies offer scholarships or tuition programs for children of employees.

Throughout the year, various organizations provide the Office of Financial Aid with information regarding their private scholarship and grant opportunities. We have provided contact information for each and, if possible, a website you can visit for more information.
