Scholarship Application Instructions
Instructions below are for open General Scholarship application periods:
To apply for these scholarships, students will visit the Chipola College Academic Works website and fill out the General Scholarship Application. The majority of the scholarship opportunities offered by the Chipola Foundation are auto-matched through an applicant’s submitted General Application. If an applicant is eligible for additional scholarships that require supplemental information, these will display once the General Application has been submitted. These are identified as Recommended Opportunities.
