The Fulton County Community Foundation’s summer scholarship applications are now open.
Applications are available at www.nicf.org/fulton-county/scholarships and must be submitted by Tuesday, July 1, at 3 p.m. ET.
Several scholarships with varying criteria are available to Fulton County residents pursuing higher education:
The Ginger Miller Higher Education Scholarship provides scholarships for qualified college graduates pursuing graduate or professional school degrees.
The Phillips-Braman Scholarship provides scholarships for Rochester High School graduates who have completed one year of coursework at Purdue University. Applicants must demonstrate financial need and academic achievement.
The Back Home Again in Indiana Scholarship supports non-traditional students who wish to pursue higher education and/or training to enhance their skills for employment. Non-traditional students include those who have graduated from high school or obtained a GED and have delayed entrance into college, rather than earning a degree immediately after high school.
The Frederick Rakestraw Law Scholarship provides scholarships for qualified college graduates pursuing a degree in law. Applicants must have been residents of Fulton County for at least three years during high school and must be accepted into a graduate school program and enrolled in any school of law in the United States.
For more information, contact Shannon Berger, Scholarship Coordinator for the Northern Indiana Community Foundation, at 574.223.2202 or scholarships@nicf.org.
