QVCC Foundation scholarships
DANIELSON — Thanks to multiple individuals and businesses, the Quinebaug Valley Community College Foundation is offering $170,000 to local students attending Connecticut State Community College Quinebaug Valley (formerly known as Quinebaug Valley Community College). Individual awards range between $500 and $2,500, and may be used to support tuition, textbooks, technology, and other educational expenses.
Continuing its 53-year mission, The QVCC Foundation Scholarships are exclusively intended for residents of northeastern Connecticut, whose home college is Quinebaug Valley. Scholarships are available to new (incoming), returning, and select graduating Quinebaug Valley students attending full-time or part-time (2 classes). Most scholarships require a minimum GPA of 3.0.
To apply for scholarships, students must submit an online application, as well as a transcript, personal statement, and two letters of recommendation. All materials must be submitted together in one packet to the Student Affairs office at the Danielson campus of Connecticut State Community College Quinebaug Valley by noon March 8.
