Let us help reduce the cost of your education!


Last year, Spokane Colleges Foundation awarded scholarships to 203 students to cover the costs of tuition and books, as well as 452 emergency aid awards to help with testing costs, program fees and emergency needs.

Scholarships for the 2025-2026 school year will be open from January 18 - March 18, 2025!

The Foundation has over 100 scholarships that open each January, as well as others that open for applications in the summer. 

The first step to apply for scholarships is to complete our general scholarship application. 

Once completed, you’ll be entered in our general scholarship pool to be considered for those scholarships open to all SCC and SFCC students. You’ll also be alerted to additional scholarship opportunities which you may qualify for based on the responses you provided. Many of these opportunities require additional information, but have fewer applicants because they have very specific criteria. We encourage you to take the time to apply for all scholarships for which you qualify to increase your chances of receiving an award.
