A number of scholarships have been established by individual donors, corporations or foundations for students currently attending or planning to enroll at Whitworth. These scholarships are available only to students attending full-time at Whitworth. The scholarships amounts vary, but generally will be greater than $500 and less than $5,000. Various criteria are used to determine eligibility.

Most Whitworth endowed scholarships require financial need. If you are not planning to complete the Federal Application for Student Aid (FAFSA) form, your eligibility for these scholarships is very limited. If you are planning to complete the FAFSA form, it is suggested that you complete the FAFSA form by March 1 for maximum consideration.
