Tim Akers Memorial Scholarship Fund

The Tim Akers Memorial Scholarship Fund, administered by the Alaska Community Foundation, provides financial assistance to students from Alaska who are pursuing higher education. This program is specifically designed for Alaska residents who are studying technology. To qualify, applicants must have maintained a minimum 3.0 GPA at the most recent school they attended.

The Alaska Community Foundation utilizes a centralized online system, allowing students to apply for multiple scholarships through a single application portal. While the foundation does not explicitly require the FAFSA for all of its awards, applicants are generally encouraged to complete the federal financial aid application to demonstrate financial need if requested during the matching process. The scholarship funding can be used to cover educational expenses associated with post-secondary enrollment.
