Scholarships
Online Scholarship Applications Now Ready
The 2012-2013 Scholarship application is now available – online! You must have a Sierra College student ID number to apply for scholarships. Please log into your mySierra account and go to the Financial Aid tab. You will see a link under the Scholarship channel.
You will need to have 2 email addresses for those who will be able to support your recommendation for a scholarship. Once you enter their email addresses an email will be generated to your recommender to answer a few short questions. We suggest you provide an email address for an instructor and an employer.
You will be able to see all the scholarships we offer, but the great thing is you only need to complete one application and the software will tell which scholarships you qualify for.
Deadline to submit the application will be: February 20, 2012 – 11:59 p.m.
