Alvie C. Jeffres Memorial Scholarship Fund

The Alvie C. Jeffres Memorial Scholarship Fund, administered by the Idaho Community Foundation, supports students from northern Idaho who are pursuing higher education. To qualify for this program, applicants must be a resident of Bonner County. Eligible candidates include those who are currently attending or planning to enroll at a community college, university, vocational school, or technical college.

Applicants must maintain a minimum GPA of 2.5 to be considered. The selection process evaluates candidates based primarily on their financial need. To demonstrate this need, students should prepare to submit their financial details, which typically involves completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, to generate the necessary financial metrics for the committee's review. The funding helps cover the costs associated with tuition and related educational expenses at the student's chosen institution. The annual deadline to submit all application materials for this scholarship is March 15.
