    About this scholarship

    The Stanislaus Futures Scholarship, administered by the Stanislaus Community Foundation, supports first-generation college students who are preparing to transition to higher education. To qualify, applicants must be graduating high school seniors from Stanislaus County. Additionally, candidates must be active participants in a recognized college readiness or mentorship program. The program is designed for students pursuing either an associate or bachelor's degree at an accredited post-secondary institution.

    This scholarship provides financial assistance ranging from $1,000–$3,000. Recipients can renew the award for up to two years, helping to secure ongoing funding for their undergraduate studies. Because the selection process requires applicants to demonstrate financial need, students should expect to complete the FAFSA or a state financial aid application to verify their household income. For current dates and application deadlines, please see the official page.

    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.
