If you are finding it tough to come up with money to go to college you may be eligible for a scholarship.
Delta College is currently accepting online scholarship applications for the Fall 2012 and Winter 2013 semesters. The deadline to apply is March 1, 2012.
To begin the process, visit the Delta College web site at www.delta.edu and click on the scholarship link. Scholarships are made possible by local community supporters.
Scholarships are determined by a number of criteria, including how well students answer two essay questions. Some scholarships require a student to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), but others do not; however, it is in the best interest of each student to complete the FAFSA. The FAFSA can be found online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
During the 2011-2012 academic year, 283 students received privately funded scholarships totaling $318,115. In addition, community organizations and associations provided $506,700 in designated scholarships for 430 students.
If you have any questions about scholarships or the application process, contact the Delta College Foundation Office at 989-686-9224.
