Scholarship List - National/Iowa

National & State Scholarships

In addition to our local scholarships, there are many national and state-level scholarships available to HCHS students. These scholarships are often open to students across Iowa or the entire country, so the applicant pool can be larger than for local scholarships.

Important Notes:

• The scholarships listed here are not an all-inclusive list. These are the scholarships that have provided information to HCHS to share with students. There are many more opportunities out there!

• Each scholarship has its own application process, deadlines, and submission requirements—please read all instructions carefully.

• Transcripts, letters of recommendation, and essays may be required. Make sure to plan ahead!
  
  

How to Use This List:

1. Browse the scholarships by name or deadline.

2. Click the scholarship to access application instructions or a link to the official site.

3. Save deadlines in your calendar and start early—national and state scholarships often require more time to complete.
   
   

Tips for Success:

• Keep a personal essay and activities résumé ready to adapt for multiple applications.

• Ask for letters of recommendation well in advance.

• Track all applications and deadlines in one place so nothing gets missed.
