As you are wrapping up your classes and tying a bow on your finals, Christmas is quickly approaching. While spending time with family and friends, eating delicious food, and celebrating Christmas and New Year’s, the month-long winter break is also a great time to apply for scholarships!

Not sure where to start? We recommend checking out George Fox donor-funded scholarships! All you have to do is submit one application, which could give you the opportunity to be matched with one of our 200-plus donor-funded scholarships.

You can start your application here at georgefox.awardspring.com.

If you have questions about the donor-funded application, please contact Brennan Rains at brains@georgefox.edu.

Merry Christmas, Bruins, and a Happy New Year!
