The following is a list of useful resources when searching for college scholarship applications.  If you have any questions about the process, our counselors are available to assist. 

  • The Monroe Public Schools Scholarship -Usually opens in November
  • Monroe High School’s Career Center Scholarship Listings
  • Letter of Recommendation Information Sheet: Some scholarships require students to submit letters of recommendation. Give this form to the person you ask to write your letter; along with a pre-addressed stamped envelope to where the letter will be sent. Make sure to give your letter write ample time (2 or more weeks) and don't forget to thank the person when they are finished.
  • Western Undergraduate Exchange Program: Program that allows WA students to enroll in other select Western State colleges and pay a reduced tuition rate (typically 150% of the in-state rate for the specific college). Some colleges would be significantly cheaper than some of the WA colleges under the WUE Program.
  • The Washington College Grant (WA Grant) is money to help pay for career training, college, or an apprenticeship. Completing a FAFSA or WASFA application is the first step to accessing state financial aid—free money from the State of Washington to help pay for many types of education, including career training, college, or an apprenticeship. https://wsac.wa.gov/wcg
