Along with our GFPSF scholarships and scholarships managed by Great Falls High, our seniors also have access to what we refer to as "outside scholarships", which are scholarships run through other foundations, groups, representatives, or the colleges, themselves. Our Counseling Office will attempt to keep the list below as updated as possible throughout the year, but please understand that there are many scholarships we may not be aware of and students should take it upon themselves to seek other opportunities, as well.
Any Montana high school senior graduating in 2022 may apply if he or she will be attending an accredited institution of higher education. These accredited institutions include trade schools, technical schools, colleges or universities. The applicant’s field of study may be any field that they want to pursue.
Ian, was a Great Falls resident and C130 pilot that was killed in Australia in January 2020 fighting the wildfires. The family has started a foundation in his name in order to promote acts of service and scholarship. We would like to ensure Great Falls high school seniors who have any affiliation with any of the Montana Guard units are aware of the opportunity to apply.
