LEAF’s Scholarship Search database contains local and statewide opportunities for high schoolers along with a few opportunities for college students and/or adult learners. The vast majority of local scholarships are posted in the December-March timeframe with late-winter/spring deadlines. LEAF’s scholarships database will be updated as new opportunities become available, so check back often. Students should also check with their high school counselor’s office for scholarship opportunities that are exclusive to their high school or the city in which they reside.
