Scholarship Application Update:
Due to an unexpected delay the scholarship application will not be available until Friday, January 27. We appreciate your patience and look forward to serving you with an improved application process.
Application Deadline is now February 14, 2006
The new on-line scholarship application process is currently in the development and testing phase. The new system will make applying for scholarships managed by the Idaho State Board of Education much easier for students and high school officials and will allow us to shorten the processing and selection process.
It is important that the system is fully tested prior to allowing students to begin the application process, and this has required us to delay the application release date and extend the application deadline.
