## About this scholarship

The R.H. Beel Memorial Scholarship is a regional program administered by the Community Foundation Santa Cruz County. This opportunity is designed to support local students from Santa Cruz County high schools, such as Santa Cruz High School, as they transition to higher education. Eligible applicants are typically graduating seniors who plan to pursue postsecondary studies at an accredited college or university. 

The scholarship assists with the costs associated with attending higher education, helping students manage their educational expenses. To apply, students must follow the application guidelines provided by the foundation. Because this program is administered by a community foundation, applicants are generally encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the California Dream Act Application to establish financial need, which is often a standard component of the local review process. For current deadlines and detailed application requirements, interested students should consult the official page for current dates.
