Applying for scholarships shouldn’t feel overwhelming. To help make the process simpler and more accessible, the Community Foundation for Mississippi has launched a new scholarship application platform that allows students to apply for multiple opportunities with a single application.
Beginning January 15, students can complete one application and be automatically matched with scholarship opportunities they qualify for, all in one place. The streamlined platform is designed to reduce barriers and help students focus on planning for their educational future.
The Community Foundation for Mississippi currently offers more than $170,000 in scholarships and award funds to students across the state. Each scholarship has been established to honor a person, profession, school, or educational goal, with most opportunities available to graduating high school seniors.
The scholarship application cycle opens January 15, 2026, and most scholarships will close April 15, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. Students may log into the portal at any time to start an application, continue working on one in progress, or check the status of a submitted application.
