Application Process for WVC and Foundation Scholarships

Wenatchee Valley College (WVC) awards scholarships to approximately 200 students yearly. Amounts vary up to full tuition. Scholarship applications are available from the financial aid office at (509) 682-6810 (Wenatchee) or (509) 422-7808 (Omak) and through local high school counselors.  The application may also be downloaded from this website by clicking on the scholarship application link below.

 2012-2013 WVC Scholarship Application     Application deadline is February 1, 2012

 Students who were awarded a renewable scholarship for the 2011-2012 school year are not required to submit a 2012-2013 WVC Scholarship application but rather must submit a "renewable application". 

 2012-2013 WVC Renewable Scholarship Application Form     

Renewable application deadline is February 1, 2012

To determine if you are eligible for a renewable scholarship, refer to your 2011-2012 scholarship award letter or contact the WVC financial aid office.

The WVC scholarship application covers all of the scholarships available. Students do not need to apply for specific scholarships, as the selection committee will match applicants using the application materials submitted.  Students may check the box on the backside of the application for any scholarships they wish to be considered for, but it is not required.

Any applications submitted after the February deadline will be considered as "late" applicants.  If there are scholarship funds remaining these late applicants will be considered during the second round of awards which is completed after winter quarter.  The 2012-2013 second round of awards will be completed after winter quarter 2012.

The individual scholarship criteria may be reviewed by clicking on the links below:

Scholarships that take financial need into consideration (indicated by a “$” symbol), require that the Free Application For Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) be submitted.  www.fafsa.ed.gov.

Scholarships that require additional information will be noted with a "+" symbol. 

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).   Ask for the outside scholarship binder or click on the link below.  Scholarship deadlines vary.
