Lane Community College - Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management

Scholarship Opportunities

Scholarship dollars are available to help pay for your schooling and, with some effort on your part, can be yours!

When you find a scholarship you would like to apply for, check your eligibility against the criteria for the scholarship and make sure that you qualify. Read all the details of the scholarship and follow the directions carefully for a successful submission package.

Each year, usually during January, the Lane Foundation office prints a brochure of scholarships that are available through Lane Community College. You can obtain a brochure online at www.lanecc.edu/foundation/scholarshipopps.htm, through the Foundation office (Building 3, Room 205), or in the Culinary and Hospitality office. Scholarship applications have specific criteria for application and a definite deadline…prepare early. The Foundation website has complete information on scholarships and all the forms you need for the application process.

Lane offers a scholarship workshop, usually at the beginning of winter term on a Saturday. Signs are posted throughout campus as a reminder of the event.

Career and Employment Services has videos for viewing. You can reach them at 463-5217 or access their website at www.lanecc.edu/ces/ for more information.

In addition to Lane scholarships, many students use the internet to seek scholarship dollars. The National Restaurant Association (www.restaurant.scholarshipsorg/careers/scholarships.cfm) is a great resource for scholarships and provides links to other scholarships on their website (state restaurant associations, American Culinary Federation, C-CAP, James Beard Foundation, and the American Dietetic Association).

Scholarships are a win-win situation for both recipients and donors.
