Scholarship Recipient Required forms Community volunteers of all ages and backgrounds review a packet of applications from students they do not know. These volunteers score the students in 10 different areas – such as leadership, volunteer service, extracurricular activities and questionnaires – according to the provided guidelines. To assure fairness, every student is reviewed by five different volunteers and their score is averaged.

These scores determine the student that will be awarded each scholarship. Scholarship recipients are notified by mid-May each year. Saginaw Community Foundation will offer an opportunity for those applying for scholarships to discuss their application one-on-one with a Foundation staff member.

Please feel free to stop by our office during normal business hours, or call us anytime with questions at (989) 755-0545. Looking for additional scholarship resources? We have compiled a listing of scholarships available through other local, state and national organizations.
