Scholarships offered through The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee have been made possible by the generosity of donors who help students, such as you, plan post-secondary education. Scholarship Funds within The Community Foundation can be set up to benefit students from particular geographic areas or schools, attending certain post-secondary institutions, or entering certain fields of study. Students apply to the program and, if eligible, can be awarded grants from one or more of these different funds. Scholarship applications are generally accepted and reviewed in the spring of each year.
