Skagit Community Foundation says applications for its 2026–27 cycle open November 1, 2026. Its portfolio includes funds for Skagit County students and awards tied to schools, congregations, community programs, and continuing education. The opening date is not the deadline: each scholarship lists its own cutoff, with some closing in March, April, or June 2027.
Examples on the page include Semillas de Esperanza for undocumented or DACA students from Skagit County, including seniors and current college students; a last-dollar scholarship for four-year study; and awards for Mount Vernon High School graduates. Each has distinct criteria and does not define eligibility for every other fund.
The foundation provides an online portal and application guidance. Before registering, review residence, school or program background, academic level, and documents for each opportunity. For last-dollar awards, confirm which resources are subtracted to calculate remaining need; the label does not mean the scholarship automatically covers any balance.
Use a personal email account, keep each confirmation, and track separate deadlines. Some scholarships may require enrollment proof or additional details before payment. If an award requires FAFSA, apply early and ask the college how it coordinates with other grants. The official portal is the place to confirm updates; do not treat prior-cycle dates as current.
Confirm the academic year, applicant group, local deadline and time, and documents others must submit. Keep copies and confirmations. Ask your school’s financial-aid office how the scholarship coordinates with FAFSA, grants, and other support.
Read the aid-program profile and the FAFSA guide; verify with the institution how funding is coordinated.
