OLEAN, N.Y. — Area students can begin applying for scholarships managed by the Cattaraugus Region Community Foundation on February 1.
Students can apply using the online scholarship portal at cattfoundation.org/scholarships. Filling out one common application allows students to apply for awards from 50 scholarship funds.
Scholarships are available to students throughout the region (including Cattaraugus, Allegany, Chautauqua and McKean (PA) counties) for a multitude of interests and career/educational goals.
Applicants will submit supporting documentation such as transcripts and recommendation letters using the online portal as well.
Last year 79 area students received over $100,000 in awards from Foundation-managed scholarships funds.
More information about scholarships, including a comprehensive list of available scholarships and a tutorial on using the scholarship portal, is available at cattfoundation.org/scholarships.
Applications will be due April 3.
