While the majority of the scholarships offered by the Chipola Foundation for the 2024-2025 school year are processed through the Chipola Academic Works website, there are a few scholarships processed outside the website. These scholarships are known as External Scholarships and because of their earlier application deadlines or other unique factors, these scholarship applications will need to be mailed directly to the off-campus scholarship committees or submitted to certain high schools' guidance counselor offices by the dates indicated in the scholarship descriptions.  Students will need to print out the applications and send the completed applications and required attachments to the addresses provided in the external scholarship descriptions.
