Pay for college with College Bound!

The College Bound Scholarship is a program for low-income youth. If your family qualifies your child could receive college tuition for up to four years!

After your child applies, he/she needs to do well in middle and high school, graduate from high school, and stay out of trouble.

The scholarship may be used at a community college, a vocational-technical college, or a 4 year college or university. For more information and to apply online, visit www.hecb.wa.gov/collegebound or download a brochure here.
