A scholarship is an excellent way to secure financial aid for your education! Most scholarships are awarded based on academic merit or other achievements, and the best part is, a scholarship doesn’t have to be repaid.
Peninsula College Foundation Scholarships
The Peninsula College Foundation is committed to helping students succeed in college through its scholarship program and works with dozens of community donors to offer scholarships and awards to Peninsula College students! The Peninsula College Foundation is thrilled to offer nearly $200,000 in general and program-specific (i.e., nursing, multimedia communication/journalism, etc.) scholarship funds for the 2025–26 academic year.
Note: Some awards are for full-time attendance, while others allow for part-time attendance. Awards for part-time attendance are typically pro-rated.
