Scholarships
Be sure to check out the Scholarships posts on the Alva Career Center website. I have also shared a Google Sheet – click here – that you can create a copy of and track scholarships that may apply to you.
NWTC Foundation Scholarship – High school juniors or seniors and adults may apply for the Spring NWTC Foundation Scholarships. To claim the scholarship, students will be required to show that they are incurring some type of educational expense for either the current semester or next summer or fall. Students may download the NWTC Foundation Scholarship application – NWTC Foundation Scholarship Application 2024. For more information about filling out the scholarship, visit https://nwtech.edu/alvacc/nwtc-foundation-scholarship-2-09-24/.
FAFSA – Before you can apply for financial aid at a college or technology center, you must complete a FAFSA application. Some scholarship applications also require FAFSA to be filled prior to application. The 2024-2025 FAFSA will be released by December 31, 2023, so make sure you have everything you need to fill it out! The UCanGo2 Finish the FAFSA in Five Steps publication will make sure you know exactly what materials you need to gather before filling out your application, as well as helpful tips for the rest of the application.
