The San Diego Foundation’s 2013-2014 Scholarship application is now available!

Our Common Scholarship Application uses one online form to access more than 100 scholarships. The online application has now opened; the deadline to start an application is February 4, 2013 and the deadline to submit an application is February 6, 2013.

To encourage applicants to apply early, we’ll be choosing a random winner of a $100 gift card to Barnes & Noble every Monday from December 17 to January 28. The earlier applicants submit their applications, the more chances they’ll have to win!

Applicants don’t have to have straight As, be star athletes or be in leadership positions! We have opportunities for students with:
• A commitment to their education
• Potential for success
• A minimum GPA of 2.5 for many scholarships
• Participation in extra-curricular activities, community service and/or work experience
• Some financial need
Note that almost all of our scholarships do require San Diego County residency.

Our online application has been streamlined, making it easier and faster to complete. It should take about 45 minutes, with additional time to write personal statements. Most scholarships no longer require transcripts, letters of recommendation or tax returns with the application. Students can submit the application through any computer with an internet connection!

Please alert any interested students to this opportunity by sending them to our website at www.sdfoundation.org/ScholarshipApplication.
