Available Scholarships: Who Should Apply?
Students in their Senior Year of High School at Woodland Hills School District are invited to apply. There are currently thirteen scholarships available (some scholarships have multiple awards). Each scholarship has a different award amount, guidelines and criteria.
Students should carefully read through each of the scholarship guidelines to determine which scholarship suits them best.
Students are eligible to receive ONE scholarship offered through the Foundation but are eligible to win additional scholarships which are offered through outside donors. Students are encouraged to apply for ALL scholarships for which they are eligible.
Children of CURRENT Woodland Hills Foundation Board Members are not eligible to apply.
Letters of Recommendation
If an application does require a Letter of Recommendation, students may send the person from whom they are requesting a letter the link to our Letters of Recommendation page.
Once there, they will be able to easily upload or email a letter of recommendation directly to the Foundation.
Financial Needs Statement
Some applications also require a Financial Needs Statement.
A Financial Needs Statement is an important part of any scholarship application. It explains your financial situation and tells admissions staff why you will benefit from monetary support.
For most of our scholarships, a Financial Needs Statement is OPTIONAL. HOWEVER, it is important to note that you will be awarded additional points when you include yours: All scholarships are scored using a rubric which is a type of scoring guide that assesses and articulates specific components and expectations in different categories. Each category is awarded points, based on your answers. Including your Financial Needs Statement could give you the extra points you need to win a scholarship.
Writing this statement should not be a burden! Please click the Financial Needs Statement link above for a short guide/template for writing your statement. Check the application for which you wish to apply and check to see if your application requires the Financial Needs Statement. If it does, you should have your statement ready before you apply.
Any additional questions or clarifications may be addressed to Jennifer Trehar
How do we choose winners?
Review committees select recipients based on information submitted by the applicant (but names are blacked out). Some scholarship funds have specific eligibility requirements established by the donor, such as enrollment at a particular college or specializing in a particular field of study. Committees make their selections and the recipients will be notified at a date to be determined.
