Church Scholarships

With the wide array of scholarship opportunities available, it is no surprise that a large number of scholarship opportunities exist from both individual churches and wide-ranging ministries. Scholarship awards granted by churches are generally awarded to members of the congregation of that church, so students looking for church scholarships should begin by checking with local ministries. Scholarships awarded by churches are often granted for students planning on working in or with the church after graduation.
