Who Can Apply:
- The Virginia Middle Peninsula is home to beautiful waterfront landscapes and tight-knit communities. The Middle Peninsula is also home to many families who do not have the financial resources to send their children to college.
- While financial aid is an option, it often doesn’t go far enough in lowering a student or family’s expected financial contribution, leaving higher education inaccessible. Scholarships are a crucial part of many student’s college payment plans. While there are limited scholarships available, hardworking and deserving students can often receive life-changing aid through the generosity of others.
- This scholarship seeks to make higher education more accessible to students from the Virginia Middle Peninsula who need help paying for tuition or other expenses.
- Any high school student at Essex High School, Gloucester High School, Middlesex High School, West Point High School, Mathews High School, King and Queen High School, or King William High School in Virginia may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
