Foundation Scholarships

ANNUAL SCHOLARSHIPS

Annual scholarships are awarded to students on a yearly basis.

A minimum amount is required to establish a scholarship in your name. Contact the Northeast Community College Foundation to learn more.

ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIPS

Endowed scholarships create a permanent fund in which contributions are invested to ensure the scholarship retains its value in perpetuity. Scholarships are awarded from the interest accrued while the principal is never touched.

A minimum of $25,000 is required to establish an endowed scholarship, which will generate one $1,000 scholarship annually. Incorporating endowed scholarships into estate planning is a significant way to help students achieve their dreams and leave a legacy.

If you are interested in establishing a scholarship or contributing to an existing scholarship fund, please call (402) 844-7240 or email foundation@northeast.edu. Foundation staff will work directly with you to structure your scholarship agreement to include eligibility criteria that you would like for your fund.

If you are interested in applying for a scholarship, please visit the Scholarships page on our website or call our Financial Aid Office at (402) 844-7285.

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your generosity in funding the scholarship that I received this past year. I was very honored to be the recipient of the scholarship award and it was extremely helpful as it alleviated a large number of my concerns about being a first-generation college student. Receiving this scholarship motivated me to maintain my GPA and has inspired me to one day give back to my community. I will always remember your generous contribution to my education, thank you for helping me achieve my goals.

    Jesse Owen once said, “We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort.” While working towards my goals and dreams, the scholarships I have been awarded have made the stress of college and decision making a little less stressful. Thank you.

    Hello, and thank you so much for helping me invest in my education. A few years ago I did not think I would be capable of going to school anymore due to family circumstances. Something that seemed so impossible became possible with your help. Knowing that there are people out there willing to help me is all I needed to continue my education, when I thought I was alone. Thank you again!
