Cape Cod Foundation Scholarships
Scholarship Sponsored by Cape Cod Foundation
Here’s a clearer, more teacherly version of the information — the kind of explanation I’d give students in a guidance lesson:
Quick history and purpose
- The Cape Cod Foundation began in 1989 with a single scholarship fund. Since then it has grown: today it administers more than 330 funds, and over 100 of those award scholarships every year. Each fund was created by someone in our community who wanted to expand educational opportunities for local students.
What the Foundation does (and why it matters)
- The Foundation coordinates all scholarship activity and acts as a resource for students, parents/guardians, and school staff. The scholarship listings on the website give an overview of every fund the Foundation manages so you can see what’s available.
One application you should use
- The Cape Cod Foundation uses a Universal Application. Fill it out once and the system automatically matches you with every scholarship you’re eligible for — so you don’t have to hunt down individual forms and won’t miss opportunities.
- The online scholarship portal also includes additional opportunities from the Cape Cod Association (a partner organization) and occasional special grants for other educational pursuits.
Annual awards — the numbers to know
- The Foundation awards more than $1,000,000 in scholarships each year.
- Individual awards range from about $1,000 to over $40,000.
- The average award is about $5,000; the most common award amount is $1,000.
Who should apply
- High school seniors planning to pursue an associate or bachelor’s degree, technical training, or a certificate program.
- Current college students working toward an associate, bachelor’s, or graduate degree.
- Adults returning to education after a break who are seeking an associate, bachelor’s, or graduate degree, technical training, or a certificate.
Eligibility
- Eligibility requirements vary by scholarship. The Universal Application is the gateway: complete it and review the scholarship descriptions online to see the specific requirements for each fund.
If you’re a student, parent, or school official: use the Universal Application on the Foundation’s scholarship portal and talk with your guidance office if you’d like help. Filling out that one application is the most efficient way to discover every scholarship for which you might qualify.
