Idaho scholarships for college students?

I'm from Idaho and looking for scholarships that are available to students in my state. Does anyone have information on Idaho-specific scholarships or know where I can find opportunities to apply?

Sure, I'd be more than happy to provide some guidance! First of all, it's excellent you're thinking about how to finance your college education; strategic scholarship searching can open up a lot of opportunities.

There are several scholarships available specifically to students from Idaho:

1. "Governor's Cup Scholarship": This is awarded to Idaho high school seniors planning on attending some, but not all, colleges in Idaho.

2. "Idaho Opportunity Scholarship": Amounts vary for students to attend eligible Idaho colleges. You must be an Idaho resident and a graduate of an Idaho high school with a minimum GPA of 2.7. Also, you'll need to demonstrate financial need through your FAFSA result.

3. "Tschudy Family Scholarship": This aids students from Emmett High School who are planning to attend any public or private college.

As you explore these options, please keep in mind that Idaho colleges themselves often offer scholarships. For instance, Boise State University offers the "Gem Scholarship" for Idaho residents that covers full tuition.

Also, make sure you fill out the FAFSA in October to determine your eligibility for federal and state aid. This is also a requirement for some of the scholarships mentioned.

Lastly, now that Cappex is known as Appily, it's a resource for accessing a database that includes several scholarships available for Idaho students.

Keep in mind, deadlines can approach quickly, so it's a good idea to start applying as early as you can. Best of luck in your scholarship search!
