Ella Josephine Goodman Horn Scholarship

The Ella Josephine Goodman Horn Scholarship, administered by the Community Foundation for Brevard, supports local students seeking higher education in Florida. To qualify, applicants must designate Brevard County as their primary residence and have finished at least one semester of post-secondary education. Eligible candidates must plan to enroll at an accredited college or university within the state of Florida. Individuals who already hold two or more college degrees or those pursuing postgraduate studies are not eligible for this program.

Applicants must demonstrate financial need and submit a FAFSA Submission Summary, specifically the Eligibility Overview page showing their Student Aid Index, to verify their financial status. The application process also requires submitting an unofficial transcript, a resume, a letter of recommendation, and responses to short essay prompts. Selected candidates must be available for interviews in late March. The deadline to submit all required documents through the foundation's online portal is February 2, 2027, at 11:59 p.m.
