Who should apply?

YOU!

If you are taking classes at Lake Michigan College chances are good there is a scholarship to help you with your need. The application is simple and automatically considers you for many awards. You will be notified if any awards require you to answer additional questions.

High School Seniors: Get your application in by December 1 to qualify to dollars specifically set aside for you!  Don't forget to make sure we have your high school transcripts.

When should I apply?

  • Priority deadlines: December 1 and March 1
  • Application will remain opening following initial awards until August for the upcoming school year.

When will I know if I have received a scholarship?

Scholarships are awarded starting in late December and spring and will continue until the funds are exhausted. We start notifying awardees by letter in late spring. You can also check your LMC Wavelink/Student Profile to see if you have been awarded a scholarship.

Thank you!
