Columbia Basin Foundation Scholarships

Columbia Basin Foundation’s 2027 scholarship season runs December 1, 2026, through March 1, 2027. Its page groups awards for seniors and college students and uses a universal application that, once submitted, displays matching opportunities and supplemental forms when needed. It is not one single fund; amounts and criteria vary by award.

First, create an account with a personal email, complete the universal form, and submit it. The system then displays scholarships the student may qualify for; some require supplemental questions. Completing only the general section may not finish the process: review the matches, complete add-ons, and keep the submission confirmation.

The foundation recommends gathering recommendation letters, transcripts, and academic records before opening an account. Seniors may need an updated transcript after the first semester; college students should prepare enrollment details. Read each listing for geographic ties, major, academic level, and other terms because matching can include criteria not shown in the basic profile.

Results are expected through the high school or email and may also appear in the applicant’s account by June 2027. Use the same email throughout, check spam folders, and complete any acceptance step. A local scholarship may be paid directly to the institution; ask the financial-aid office whether it changes other aid.
