Scholarships are a form of financial aid that does not need to be repaid. Scholarships are awarded on various criteria usually reflecting the values and purposes of the donor of the award. Scholarships can be based on merit, need, demographics, or career focus. For LSCS students, scholarships can be found through LSCS:
There are many scholarship opportunities at Lone Star College System. Various individuals, local businesses, civic groups, governmental agencies, and organizations contribute to the Lone Star College System scholarship program. Requirements and award amounts vary.
You can pick up a general scholarship application at any of the college financial aid offices or request to have one mailed to you. Our Financial Aid Steps will help walk you through the application process. And don't forget to fill out the FAFSA!
If you do receive a scholarship, it is strongly recommended that you write a personal thank you letter to the donor(s). A sample thank you letter can give you some ideas.
