Scholarship Information
A spreadsheet with scholarships has been created for your convenience. The applications will be attached when the application window becomes available. The Standard Wawasee & Kosciusko County forms are included. Check this spreadsheet periodically for all updates!!! A pdf version of your transcript is available in your Skyward portfolio for you to use with your scholarship applications.

Two Ways to Look for Scholarships
1. Local Scholarships:
Start with these scholarships first. You have a higher chance of winning them because they are considered local to our Wawasee students. These are offered through our WHS Scholarship Spreadsheet. There will either be a website link to the application, or the student will be instructed to go to our SCHOLARSHIP DRAWER in the Guidance Office to pick up a paper application. Scholarships with paper applications are listed in alphabetical order in the drawer. Some are application specific, some require the Wawasee Scholarship Application, and others require the Kosciusko County Standard Scholarship Application. Only fill out these application links if the scholarship specifically says to do so.

If you need a PDF version of your transcript emailed to you to attach to any on-line scholarship applications, please email Mrs. McKinney in the guidance office jmckinney@wawasee.k12.in.us
2. Scholarship Websites:
These are mostly for national scholarships and are very competitive. Don't spend a lot of your time applying for these, but check them out for their application tips and hints. IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER! NEVER PAY MONEY TO GET FREE MONEY! Don't pay for college or scholarship searches, there are numerous free methods of getting the information you need! Start by searching for scholarships in the subject matter or degree field you want. Use your interests, and geographic location, to narrow the search.
Kosciusko County Community Foundation Scholarship
