Designed for students age 24+ who enroll in a degree program, Northwest College offers the newly-developed Trapper Adult Learner scholarship
Scholarships are merit based and available to both full-time and part-time adult students, who are enrolled in a minimum of six credit hours per semester. Based on the current Trapper Scholarship award model, eligible Adult Learner students enrolled in 6.0-11.5 credits per semester can qualify for prorated awards equal to half the value of the current, full-time enrollment awards.
Trapper and Trapper Adult Learner Scholarships are awarded according to a set of eligibility criteria which includes applicants’ enrollment history, academic information and residency.
