Attention Seniors: The Boettcher and Daniels Fund Scholarship applications are now open!
These two scholarship opportunities are highly selective, full-ride scholarships with lengthy applications that are due in in October/November.

Daniels Fund: The Daniels Fund Scholarship deadline is November 30th. This scholarship pays for 100% of your college expenses; however, families must first show economic need before the application process can begin and all applicants must complete the 2017/18 FAFSA prior to applying.
