Applying for a scholarship through the Rochester Area Foundation is easy! Scholarships applications are available through March 31st.
The Rochester Area Foundation is committed to providing our local students with the support needed to pursue a quality education. We strongly believe that investing in education and our local students is an investment in our overall community. A growing number of donors committed to education have helped us to establish individual scholarship funds serving a variety of interests and needs.
This year, 19 scholarship funds will award nearly $60,000 to students in the Rochester area. Students are encouraged to begin their applications early to ensure they have time to complete FAFSA information and obtain letters of recommendation if required.
If you have questions about applying for a scholarship, please contact Jeremy Emmi at jeremy@rochesterarea.org or 507-424-2417.
