    About this scholarship

    The Nancy B. Reardan Scholarship, administered by the Sacramento Region Community Foundation, supports female high school seniors who are currently attending a school in Sacramento County. This program provides financial assistance ranging from $2,000 to $4,000 to help students pursue higher education. While the award is open to qualifying female seniors in the county, the selection committee gives preference to applicants who are current or former foster youth.

    To apply, students must register and complete an application through the provider's online scholarship portal. Along with the application, candidates are typically required to submit academic transcripts and a personal essay. Because this is a need-based opportunity, applicants must also provide financial documentation, which may include a submission summary report from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or a California Dream Act report. See the official page for current dates and deadlines.

    How we check listings

    Every listing links to the provider's official page. Before it goes live, its amount and dates must appear on that page, the link must work and it must pass our scam checks; anything that fails a check waits for an editor. We re-check links every week. Listings not re-verified within six months leave our search until they are.
