ESTABLISHING OR DONATING TO A SCHOLARSHIP FUND

As Utah higher education tuition costs increase, the need for scholarships steadily increases. More than 70% of all SLCC students are unable to afford higher education without some kind of financial aid. Scholarships and paid internships are offered through the Salt Lake Community College Foundation, State and federal grants, private foundations, corporations, businesses, families and individuals.

The Development Office is fortunate to have many generous scholarship donors who share our belief that education enriches the lives of SLCC students, who in turn enrich their communities upon graduation. Donors may contribute to an existing scholarship, or they may choose to establish a new one. There are three types of scholarships at SLCC:

Endowed – The original gift is invested by the SLCC Foundation, and only interest income is used to fund scholarships. The original gift is used as a perpetual source of scholarship funding.

Unrestricted – This type of scholarship provides the College with maximum flexibility in determining the best use of the scholarship donation.

Restricted – These may be one-time or annual scholarships, and may be set aside for:

- students in specific programs or departments within the College
- students in specific designations such as:

           * high academic achievement
           * minority or ethnic status
           * non-traditional status
           * special leadership skills or talents
