Community Foundation scholarships are offered annually for high school and college students throughout their respective regions, supporting education, growth, and opportunities to help students achieve their academic and career goals.

Please note: The application for our interest-free loans will be available later this year. Scholarship applications are encouraged to be submitted early. The Education Team will be available for application assistance until Wednesday, February 25, 2026.

After this date, we can not guarantee assistance will be available to help with questions or assistance in application errors. Obtaining a college education is expensive, and the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts strives to provide some financial assistance to students living in Franklin, Hampden and Hampshire counties to help them achieve their goal of graduating from college.

We have over 160 different scholarship funds, and each year we give away over 1,000 individual scholarship awards. This equates to approximately $1. 4 million in scholarships.

See our Scholarship and Loan Program FAQ for more information. Scholarships are provided for one academic year and are not automatically renewed each year. You can reapply to our program every year you are going to attend college, and the application you submit that year will be considered for all scholarships for which you are eligible.

January 1: The online scholarship application opens, and students can apply. March 1: The online scholarship application closes. Late June: Scholarship recipients are selected.

Applicants are notified by email if they did receive a scholarship. Recipients must complete the electronic form they were sent at the time of award notification by the deadline indicated. Late July: Scholarship money is sent directly to the recipient’s college.

Please note that students do not apply to a specific scholarship(s). Students complete one online application through our website and we match them to all scholarships for which they meet the eligibility. Students interested in being considered for an interest-free educational loan must submit a separate application.

Visit our loans page for more information. Who Is Eligible to Apply for Our Scholarships Any student who plans to enroll for the upcoming fall semester, in any year of college as an undergraduate or graduate student and who will attend an accredited post-secondary school in the United States. Most scholarships are for students who live in Franklin, Hampshire, and Hampden Counties.

However, some are also available to students who live in Berkshire County and Hartford County in Connecticut. We offer scholarships to those who attend on either a full-time or part-time basis. We are proud to support students from all backgrounds and experiences.

Once the application closes you will not be able to make changes regardless of when you submitted it.

We recommend you apply at least three weeks before the deadline to avoid issues. Our Scholarship Selection Process Selection committees, comprised of community members from Franklin, Hampshire and Hampden counties, volunteer their time to read applications and select recipients who are then approved by the Community Foundation’s Distribution Committee and Board of Directors.

Reviewers read your entire application and review your academic transcript. Selecting recipients is a very hard job! There are so many excellent applicants, and it’s the reviewers’ job to choose one or a few recipients for a specific scholarship fund.

Except for a few awards, a student’s financial need is strongly taken into consideration. A student’s complete academic history is also considered, as are the essays. Reviewers really want to learn something about you that they haven’t learned from the rest of your application.

Awards are made subject to availability and to the policies of the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts. These policies are available for review upon request. The Education Team will host virtual information sessions and drop-in times to answer questions and assist in the application process.
