The Eastern West Virginia Community Foundation and its affiliates use an online scholarship application hosted by AwardSpring, for most scholarships. The application for our 2023 scholarship program will go live on November 1, 2022.
In May of each year, we notify the students who are selected to receive our scholarships.
In addition to a wide range of college and university scholarships, EWVCF offers others that have their own applications, timelines, and registration deadlines. These include the following:
The Deborah, Leslie, and Christopher Bright Scholarship (Est. Scholarship: $1000) is for Morgan or Hampshire County high school students (public or homeschooled) in grades 9-12 who are interested in pursuing in-depth experiences in STEAM-based subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math). Previously Bright Scholarship recipients have attended an Astronomy Camp at Alfred University, music camps, the Fallingwater Architecture Camp, summer intensives at HARID Conservatory, and the American Musical and Dramatic Academy, and pre-college courses at Brown University.
