- Apr 30, 2027Award notification by . The application-page instruction saying February 29, 2027 is an impossible date and conflicts with the same page’s headline and timeline plus the separate official scholarship directory. Check the portal for fund-specific exceptions.
- How to apply
- Create student portal profile, complete eligibility quiz/universal application, then select matched awards and complete any added questions. Gather college/program/field/background details and financial information where requested.
- Who can apply
- Students living in northeast Minnesota or northwest Wisconsin who plan to attend a college, university, community or technical college, or trade school. Individual funds have their own residency, school, major, merit and need rules.
- Good to know
- No ACT/SAT scores required. Foundation reports over $800,000 annual aggregate funding, not an individual award. Timeline plans payments by July 30 and December 30, 2027, but contradictory deadline instructions require confirmation.
