Donors have established scholarships at SCCF that support students from many backgrounds pursuing a wide variety of careers. As you begin your application process, you will be asked a series of questions to match you with the scholarships for which you qualify based on the donors’ intentions. If you believe you have been paired incorrectly, contact Jacqui Gentile.

Some SCCF scholarships have donor restrictions that only allow high school graduating seniors to be eligible. However, many scholarships are also open to non-traditional students. This includes students who have earned the Indiana High School Equivalency Diploma (GED), students who are currently attending college, or adults who have been out of school for a while (with or without college credit) and wish to return.
