HRCF undergraduate scholarships

DirectoryScholarship

This is a group of awards reached through one application. Each award inside it has its own rules.

Award
More than 80 individual undergraduate scholarship funds with differing award amounts. Most are renewable for up to four years with annual form, current transcript, satisfactory standing and fund-specific requirements.
Deadline
2027-28 dates not yet posted. The official page describes a December 1 to March 1 application window with April email notifications.
How to apply
Submit one portal application and required materials. The 2026-27 checklist includes transcripts, two nonfamily references, personal statement and FAFSA summary/family income documentation; fund-specific exceptions apply, including tax documentation for some vocational programs without federal aid.
Who can apply
Most funds serve South Hampton Roads high-school graduates and require financial need/full-time enrollment; some restrict senior status and others have different geographic or educational criteria. Read each selected award’s rules; no universal GPA or residence requirement.
Good to know
Most awards consider need. Published material checklist explicitly concerns 2026-27; confirm next-cycle financial year and attachments. References should address the applicant for this process, rather than generic recommendation letters.
