Scholarships

Community Foundation of Greater Flint Scholarship Program

The Community Foundation online scholarship portal is now open! The majority of our scholarships use an online application that allows you to submit one application for all of the scholarships for which you are eligible.  Note that some scholarships have a different application process.  View the list of scholarships offered and how to apply.  Note the application for most scholarships is now closed EXCEPT for the following awards: 

  Alice Boyse Scholarship - deadline extended until April 5
Mustang Scholarship for MCC - deadline extended until April 5
American Institute of Architects - Flint Scholarship - deadline extended until March 29
Genesee Power Station - deadline extended until April 5

Due to the FAFSA delay, if you are a returning student please provide last year's information and if you are a new student estimate and self report how much you will need for the year ahead. You do not need a completed FAFSA to submit our scholarship application.   

Click Pre-Qualifying Questions to get started. Enter your information and we will provide you with the list of scholarships available based on the criteria you meet.
