Careers That Work!
The Northwest Career Colleges Federation thanks all of the high schools and member colleges that participated in the 2011 Careers That Work! scholarship program. For the 2011 graduating class, 570+ students are on the path to changing their lives and meeting career goals. Congratulations!
About the Scholarship
The Careers That Work! program makes available to every high school in Oregon, Washington and Idaho (public and private) five $1000 tuition scholarships to award to students each year.
Graduating students awarded the Careers That Work! Scholarship receive a tuition scholarship to pursue an education at a participating private career college in the Northwest. The Program, launched in 1999 to Washington high schools, was expanded in 2008 to Oregon and Idaho. Without the restriction of state borders students are able to select the private career college that meets their career goals. This means that without the restriction of state boarders, students are able to select the career college in any of the three states that meets their career goals!
Scholarship recipients are identified and awarded by the high school. Scholarships are tentative, pending the student's acceptance for admission to the college and commencement of study. If accepted, the scholarship will be credited to the student's tuition, generally in equal disbursements during their first academic year, in accordance with the college's scholarship award policy. Students should talk with their college to determine when their scholarship will be applied.
