The Lake Superior College Foundation offers scholarships from private donors twice a year. There are also external scholarships with different application dates (check the link on this page for details and how to apply them to your tuition).
Scholarship Recipients
To apply for the Lake Superior College Foundation scholarships, you need to fill out an online application with demographic, academic, and essay questions. You must upload your latest college or high school transcript and a letter of recommendation. You don’t need to look at individual scholarship requirements. Your answers will help volunteers score your application and match you with scholarships.
The smallest scholarship this semester is $500. All students, no matter their program or stage, can apply.
The Spring 2026 application window closed on Wednesday, November 5, 2025. About 2-5 volunteers will read and score each application. Scholarships are awarded based on these scores. Notifications will be sent in late November to early December 2025. Check the email you used in your application for updates.
Additional Scholarship Details
Scholarship funds are deposited on a student’s college account after the semester’s add-drop date. Scholarships are often for just one semester, but several are for a full year and are split between the fall and spring semesters. When award emails are sent, it will explain the type of scholarship you earned.
Scholarships are generally used for tuition, fees, books, supplies, and tools required for coursework. Some scholarships can be used for living expenses too.
