External Scholarship Resources

There are several scholarship opportunities available within your community. Here are some local organizations that provide scholarships:

LOCAL RESOURCES

• Stark Community Foundation
  Stark Community Foundation is one of the area’s major sources of college scholarship support— thanks to the generosity of caring individuals, families and businesses that have created scholarship funds. The Foundation currently manages more than 100 scholarship funds that support hundreds of deserving students each year from Stark and Carroll counties.
• Akron Community Foundation
• Barberton Community Foundation
• Tuscarawas County Community Foundation

Kent State's ScholarshipUniverse is a new search portal that helps match students to scholarships. To get started, you’ll need to complete a Student Profile. The questions you’ll be asked to answer will help match you to scholarships. While you don’t have to answer all of these questions – the more you answer, the better your search results will be. In addition, ScholarshipUniverse is able to match students to external scholarship opportunities.
