In 2007, more than 250 College of the Redwoods scholarships, ranging from $70 to $1,750, were awarded to students. In addition to CR scholarships, hundreds of scholarships from local, regional and national sources were distributed to CR students through the Scholarship Office. Scholarship lists and application forms are available in the Scholarship Office and on the web at redwoods.edu/district/scholarships.

Scholarship amounts and criteria vary. A small amount of scholarships are awarded in the fall, however the majority are awarded in the spring. We urge students to complete a Free Application for Student Aid (FAFSA) to show demonstrable financial need.

In conjunction with spring awards, certificates for all scholarships received throughout the year are presented to students at a Spring Scholarship Reception. Donors, family and friends are invited to the Reception which honors both students and donors.

Other sources of scholarship information are the local library, high schools, Humboldt State University, and the Humboldt Area Foundation. Numerous types of scholarship programs exist, however, all require investigation and follow-up. For further information about scholarships as well as additional local, regional and national scholarship opportunities, please contact the Scholarship Office at 707-476-4191.
