This list is meant to be a guide to students for
locating other scholarship opportunities; it is the
responsibility of students to contact the listed entities for
scholarship information such as application process, awarding
process, criteria (if not listed), etc. If the scholarship
supplies a hardcopy application or requires a nomination
process, students will be directed to contact the Iowa Lakes
Institutional Advancement Office.

Scholarship Opportunities binders that were located across the
five campuses and is maintained by the Iowa Lakes Institutional
