Delta College is accepting scholarship applications from future and current students for the 2025-2026 academic year.

Hundreds of scholarships are awarded annually through the Delta College Foundation, made possible by the generosity of donors. Last year, $1,039,000 was awarded to 891 students. Most scholarships distributed by the Delta College Foundation are for $1,000 for the academic year and some are even more. The deadline to apply is February 4, 2025. Award notifications will be sent to recipients in April 2025.

College should be an attainable dream for everyone in our community. The Delta College Foundation is here to help minimize the financial barrier many students face. Scholarships can help with the cost of tuition, books, fees and other expenses. The best part about receiving a scholarship is that it’s a gift, so students don’t have to pay it back.

Kindra Manial received the Hebert Memorial scholarship for the 2024-2025 academic year.

“Thankfully, I haven't had to take out any loans. Everything has been paid for either out of pocket or through scholarships.”

The scholarship application includes essays, which are scored anonymously by scholarship raters. The judging criteria is based on content, word count, and spelling and grammar.  

Any individuals considering attending Delta College for the fall 2025/winter 2026 semester are encouraged to apply for a scholarship. Applicants must have an active Delta student account. All awarded scholarships must be used while at Delta College (with the exception of the Nickless Family Transfer Scholarship) and may not be transferred to another college or university.
