This scholarship is more than financial support

Why Apply

Community-powered support: These scholarships are funded by people who believe in Lopez students and want to see them thrive. Flexible and student-centered: Funds can support a range of educational paths—college, vocational training, certifications, and more. A vote of confidence: Being selected is a reminder that your goals matter and your community is behind you. If finances are a question mark, that alone is a reason to apply.
