Scholarship Opportunities from the
Orange County Community Foundation

Below please find a comprehensive list of scholarships available from OCCF. Click the scholarship name to read about the criteria and to apply for that particular scholarship. Once you have clicked the link to apply, this will generate an application for that specific scholarship. You may not be eligible for every scholarship listed. You must read through each description carefully and individually apply for the scholarships you are a fit for. Do not submit paper applications and/or transcripts. All applications and transcripts must be submitted through the online application system. You may open your official transcript to scan and upload to the online application.

Important! If you are applying for multiple scholarships, your letters of recommendation and transcript transfer over to all scholarship applications you have started. Therefore, your recommender will only need to write one letter of recommendation. (Few scholarships will require a specific letter of recommendation and will not transfer over from a previously started application.  Therefore, you must read the directions carefully). Please be sure to ask your recommender not to include the name of a specific scholarship in the letter as it will be included in more than one application. The letters of recommendation are due at the same time and date your online application is due.

Each scholarship has a specific application link that will appear on your scholarship online account once you have clicked the link. If you do not individually click the application link for all scholarships you qualify for, they will not show up on your scholarship online account. Once you have created your account, you may view all the applications you have started by clicking "Applicant Home" on the left side of your scholarship online account.
