Each year many of our scholarships are generously funded by Alumni and Friends of Penn College.  In most cases the College is notified prior to the start of the semester if the scholarship will be funded by the donor.  If annual funding is not made available by the donor, no scholarship will be awarded under that name.  We work on a regular basis with all donors to make scholarships a reality for as many students as possible.  We encourage you to apply for scholarships that match the donor's requirements to your background and your educational goals.
