Lane's Foundation
The Lane Foundation coordinates scholarships for new and continuing Lane students. Come to Career & Employment Services to pick up an application packet, which lists all the Foundation scholarships and eligibility criteria. Applications are due March 13, 2008.
Oregon Student Assistance Commission (OSAC)
OSAC is the state student financial aid agency for Oregon, administering a variety of state, federal, and privately funded student aid programs. The website provides access to a wealth of resources and funding information, including applying for OSAC scholarships. Applications are due February 15, 2008 for eligibility in the Early Bird Scholarship drawings, otherwise due March 1, 2008.
Oregon Career Information System (CIS)
The Lane username and password are available by contacting Career & Employment Services.
Use the Financial Aid Sort program in CIS to search their scholarship database for listings that meet your criteria. Create your Portfolio when you first logon, so you can save results of scholarship searches to your account. High schools that license CIS have specific usernames and passwords for their students.
FastWeb
There are many internet sites for performing scholarship searches that match your criteria. Students seem to like FastWeb the best, but we encourage you to use others as well. In addition to doing an initial scholarship search, FastWeb will email you as more scholarships are added that match your criteria.
Your favorite Internet Search Engine
Type in keywords to search for additional websites and resources. Sometimes the results can be overwhelmingly long, so try to focus your search as much as possible.
