FAQs

Each scholarship fund has specific eligibility criteria that were defined by the donor when the fund was established. You may read the criteria for each fund below — use the search filters to see which funds you can expect to see after answering our pre-qualifying questions.

Generally, applicants must be high school seniors or graduates from a high school in one of the 20 counties that make up the Innovia Foundation service area who are planning to enroll (or are currently enrolled) as an undergraduate student at an accredited two- or four-year college or university or at an accredited vocational or technical institution in the United States.

Part-time students are eligible for many of the scholarships, though some scholarships are awarded for full-time enrollment only. Review the criteria for scholarship programs before applying.

Unless noted differently under the scholarship description, the scholarships are for accredited two- or four-year colleges and universities or accredited vocational or technical institutions in the United States.

Award decisions are made by the middle of May and applicants are notified by early June. Scholarship award checks are made out to the higher education institution of choice and mailed to students in mid-August.

All scholarship grant funds must be used for tuition, books, fees and school-related expenses for the upcoming school year only. Any other use is contrary to the intended purpose of the scholarship and would make your scholarship award taxable and could lead to a revocation of funds.

*Free Application for Federal Student Aid

**Washington Application for State Financial Aid 

FAQs

The FAFSA® is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, which unlocks financial aid, work-study and loans to attend post-high school education.

To receive federal student aid, such as federal grants, work-study, and loans, you need to complete the FAFSA. Completing and submitting the FAFSA is free and easier than ever, and it gives you access to the largest source of financial aid to pay for college or career school. The state of Washington has one of the most generous grant programs in the country and also uses the FAFSA to determine your eligibility for state grants, scholarships and work study. In addition, most universities and educational programs, as well as private scholarship providers, use your FAFSA to determine whether you qualify for their aid.

The WASFA is the Washington Application for State Financial Aid, which offers state financial aid for students who are undocumented.

The Washington Application for State Financial Aid (WASFA) is for people who don’t file a federal FAFSA application. A person should complete the WASFA if they are undocumented or do not qualify for federal financial aid because of their immigration status. If you have completed the FAFSA, you have already applied for federal and state financial aid and do not need to complete the WASFA. The WASFA can also be used in limited circumstances by other select applicants who cannot/choose not to file a FAFSA.

Filing a FAFSA is the single most important thing you can do to get money for your post-high school education.  It’s the gateway to more than $150 billion in college grants, work-study funds, and federal student loans, as well as certain state-based aid, aid from colleges and educational programs and many private scholarship providers.

If you do not think you will receive any aid or are unsure what you are doing after graduating high-school, fill it out anyway. The application is free and helps you understand what opportunities lie ahead of you.

Yes – FAFSA and WASFA unlock aid for all types of post-high school education. FAFSA and WASFA determine eligibility for financial aid for apprenticeships, technical training, 2-year and 4-year degree programs. Federal and state financial aid helps you to pursue any career that you want.
