If you wish to be considered for scholarships that have additional application requirements (indicated by a “+” symbol), check with the WVC financial aid office for additional information. For scholarships that take financial need into consideration (indicated by a “$” symbol), file the Free Application For Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Scholarships are awarded for one academic year; therefore, students must re-apply each year. Scholarship recipients must earn a 2.0 minimum GPA per quarter, unless specifically stated with the individual scholarship, to maintain eligibility during the school year.
The athletic department gives athletic awards to students who participate in one of WVC’s intercollegiate athletic teams. Inquiries regarding athletic scholarships should be directed to the athletic director or individual sport coach.
Scholarships Outside of WVC:
Service, business and professional organizations, as well as private citizens in the community, donate money to fund student scholarships on the basis of academic achievement, financial need, commitment to training or involvement in the community. Scholarship announcements come into the financial aid office throughout the school year. Eligibility criteria, application procedures and deadlines are posted at the financial aid office in Wenatchi Hall (phone: 509.682.6810).
