Your future, our focus
Fill out the online scholarship application and you'll put yourself in the running for the NWC Trapper Scholarship (funded by a bank of private scholarships), plus our Academic, Activity-Talent and Athletic scholarships. Which Trapper Scholarship award level are you eligible for?
To see how much you're guaranteed to receive in your Trapper Scholarship (doesn't include Academic, Activity-talent and/or Athletic awards you may be awarded), find the award level below that matches your high school GPA, GED/HiSet/TASC equivalency or ACT score, then trace to the right to find your award amount (if you live outside Park County, go to the far right column).
