Allow students to SOAR!
Even though LRSC is one of the least expensive colleges in North Dakota, many would-be students find the costs beyond reach. Annual Scholarships help students overcome financial barriers and “soar” to new heights. They provide a financial boost and recognition which strengthens confidence and helps students stay focused on the finish line—completing their certificates and degrees.
How it works
Annual Scholarship and Program Support sponsors are committed to making a donation each year for a period of five years or longer. Commitments of $500 per year, or larger, are encouraged.
Sponsors work with Community College Foundation staff to define priorities for using donated funds. The Enrollment Management Office employs an effective process for selecting exemplary scholarship recipients, and college faculty members take part in identifying instructional program needs. Sponsors and current-year scholarship recipients are recognized on a plaque prominently displayed at the college.
Each spring, the Community College Foundation hosts the Annual Recognition Event. Sponsors of annual scholarships have the opportunity to meet their student recipients, and program sponsors are recognized for their essential support.
