Receive Scholarships & Application
Scholarships
The Manistee County Community Foundation is accepting scholarship applications for the 2012/2013 school year. The Community Foundation is proud to play a part in the success of our County’s students. During 2010 and 2011, $17,300 in scholarship support was provided to 26 area students.
How do I Apply for a Scholarship?
The Manistee County Community Foundation awards scholarships once per year. The application deadline is March 1, 2012. New this year is an Online General Application form that makes it easier for students to apply; a single form allows applicants to be considered for multiple scholarships. There may be additional application requirements for some scholarships. Paper applications are no longer accepted. Applicants will be asked to register with E-grant before beginning their scholarship application.
Review the List of Scholarship Funds to learn more about eligibility criteria and application requirements, which vary by fund. Applicants must be a Manistee County resident or graduating senior at a Manistee County school. Manistee County Community Foundation Board of Trustees, staff and their family members are not eligible to apply. Please call if you have questions about your eligibility.
The Online General Application is administered by the Community Foundation for Muskegon County, with whom the Manistee County Community Foundation is affiliated, and used by the Community Foundations in Manistee, Muskegon, Mason, & Oceana counties. The four Foundations collectively administer over 260 scholarship funds and grant hundreds of awards each year to both graduating high school seniors and current college students. In some instances applicants from one county may be eligible to receive a scholarship from another county.
