The Missoula Community Foundation is delighted to offer SIX $1,000 scholarships to MCPS seniors again this year. Since the Missoula Community Scholarship Fund’s inception, it has supported over three hundred Missoula area students with scholarships since 1990.

A total of five, $1,000 scholarships will be awarded — to one student from each of the five MCPS High Schools. Willard students are highly encouraged to apply for the scholarship for their “home” high school. The foundation will also award one $1,000 Diversity Scholarship to a student who identifies with an underrepresented ethnic group. Applicants who are not chosen for the Diversity Scholarship will automatically be entered into the General Scholarship pool.

Students who apply for Missoula Community Foundation Scholarships must plan to attend a higher-education institution in Montana or a Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) school.

The scholarship application is designed to help our review committee get to know each applicant. The goal of the scholarship is to provide support to students who demonstrate financial need, determination, perseverance and commitment. The application is open now here and all MCPS seniors are encouraged to apply by March 24, 2023.
