Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I submit a scholarship packet?
Every VISD senior interested in continuing education or training beyond high school--whether at a vocational/technical school, art school, community college, or university--should complete a packet. The awards are based on many different criteria, such as future goals, community and school activities, academic achievement, and work experience. There truly is something for everyone, and you are not taking anything away from your classmates. You are eligible regardless of financial need, and VCSF will hold awards for up to three years to accommodate a gap year or two.
What happens to my scholarship funds after they are awarded?
Your scholarship funds will be sent to the educational institution specified on your Educational Information Form. If you are taking a a gap year or have questions about your awards please contact VCSF Treasurer, Ellen Call at vashonscholarships@gmail.com.
I am a past graduate. Is my award still available?
Depending on what year you graduated, your award may still be available to you. Please contact VCSF Treasurer, Ellen Call for details at vashonscholarships@gmail.com.
