Willard and Mary Jones Scholarship Fund

The Willard and Mary Jones Scholarship Fund, administered by the Alaska Community Foundation, supports individuals pursuing post-secondary education. This program is specifically designed for residents of Ketchikan who plan to continue their studies at an eligible institution within the state of Alaska.

To apply, students must use the Alaska Community Foundation’s online portal. The foundation utilizes a single, centralized application system that matches applicants to various scholarship opportunities based on their academic background and personal criteria. While the foundation's general application process does not directly require the FAFSA, applicants are often encouraged to complete federal or state financial aid forms to demonstrate financial need, which may be considered during the selection process. The scholarship helps cover educational expenses associated with attending an in-state college, university, or vocational program. For current application dates and deadlines, see the official page.
