Local, civic and community organizations, as well as the Clark College Foundation, award numerous scholarships to students each year. The scholarship program offered through the Clark College Foundation is one of the largest at a Washington community college. A Clark College Scholarship Handbook and application materials are available each January. In addition to the Clark College general scholarship program, the college also has scholarships, each requiring a separate application. For more information regarding scholarships, please come to the Financial Aid Office and ask for the Scholarship and Outreach Coordinator.

Most scholarships are disbursed through the Financial Aid Office and eligibility varies according to the criteria established by the donor. Sources of scholarship information can be found in:
