SPARKY College Scholarships

The SPARKY College Scholarships, administered by the Telluride Foundation, provide financial assistance to students pursuing higher education. This program is designed to help students cover their educational expenses at eligible colleges or universities. To be considered for this scholarship, applicants typically need to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or their state's equivalent financial aid application, as the selection process often takes financial need into account alongside academic achievement and community involvement. The funding from this award is generally sent directly to the recipient's chosen institution to be applied toward tuition, fees, and other authorized educational costs. Interested students should consult with their high school guidance counselors or the foundation's guidelines to understand how this aid coordinates with other state and federal grants. For information regarding current application deadlines and specific eligibility criteria, applicants must see the official page for current dates.
