    TFEC scholarships open January 1!  I wanted to share a list of new scholarships available for 2025. We now have approximately 190 local scholarships offered through TFEC, which means there is a lot of free money available for your students.

New UA Scholarships for 2025:

The University Center at Harrisburg Scholarship Fund was created to provide grants to deserving students who reside in Cumberland, Dauphin, Perry, Lebanon counties, or Dillsburg area.

Students who are present or former residents of one of the following Pennsylvania counties: Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Fulton, Juniata, Lancaster, Lebanon, Montour, Northumberland, Perry, Snyder, or York, and currently enrolled in an architecture degree program.

We will get all high school and county flyers updated as soon as possible. In the meantime, please direct your students to the High School Universal Application (UA). Their answers on the UA determine which scholarships they are eligible for.  It will also provide them a list of necessary documents to support each individual scholarship. 

They should also review the stand-alone scholarship applications and apply for any of those they are eligible for.
