Common questions
Do I have to be in high school?
No. The Fund considers Alaska high school seniors and college students pursuing qualifying courses of study, according to the audience guidance for this redesign. Specific enrollment requirements should be confirmed before launch.
What careers are included?
The Fund states education, government, and public service. Borderline professions should be reviewed by the Board rather than treated as automatically eligible.
Do I need recommendations?
Yes. The existing scholarship page specifies two: one from a peer and one from an education- or work-related individual.
Can I apply on my phone?
The current Wix application states that its application form must be completed on a computer. A mobile-friendly application platform is a separate future project.
