NSC Foundation Scholarships

The Nevada State College Foundation funds a number of scholarship programs for students. Applications are reviewed by NSC committees which include faculty from across campus. Award amounts are determined by the Foundation based on donor agreements. Please keep in mind that Board of Regents' policies require scholarship recipients to have at least a 2.75 GPA and full-time enrollment unless otherwise specified by the donor.

The 2023-2024 application will be available December 15, 2022 through April 15, 2023.
