## About this scholarship

The Thomas J. Berlinghoff Scholarship is a regional program administered by the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation. It is designed to assist local students who are pursuing higher education, helping them cover the costs associated with attending an accredited college or university. 

To be considered for this funding, applicants must complete the foundation's online application process. Candidates are typically required to demonstrate academic achievement, community involvement, and financial need. While the foundation manages its own application portal, students are generally encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to establish their financial need, as this information is often used during the selection process to evaluate candidates. 

The application cycle opens annually at the beginning of the year, and all required materials must be submitted by the deadline of March 15. Recipients can use the funding to help pay for tuition, fees, and other educational expenses at their chosen institution.
