Application forms and deadlines
To be eligible for consideration, you must have completed secondary school studies and be a current or past resident of Concord (MA) or Carlisle (MA), or have attended school in either of these towns. All Scholarships granted by The Scholarship Fund of Concord and Carlisle are based on financial need.
All applicants who demonstrate unmet financial need will be considered for scholarships awarded by our affiliates, however we have determined that undergraduates will be given priority in funding until their need gap is fully addressed, therefore at this time there is no support for graduate studies. Unfortunately, late applications cannot be considered
To apply for financial assistance for the 2024-25 academic year please fill out the appropriate online application below:
We understand there may be some delays in receiving FAFSA information this year for you and your college financial aid office due to the roll out of the new FAFSA. Given these FAFSA delays, you may submit your application without your FAFSA Submission Summary (including your Student Aid Index) and your college financial aid letter as long as you have already completed your FAFSA application. As long as you meet our other criteria, and your transcript and application are submitted on time, you will remain eligible for an award. You will need to submit your FAFSA information as soon as you receive it along with your financial aid letter from your college.
Please pay special attention to the instructions how to save and return later if you don’t complete the application in one session.
