Get matched →The Ford Opportunity Scholars Program is an undergraduate scholarship for parents of any age or adult learners over 25 who face significant barriers to higher education. Up to 90 renewable scholarships are awarded each year to students from Oregon and Siskiyou County, California.
Scholarships include a renewable financial award of up to $40,000 per year, calculated based on financial need, Cost of Attendance, and additional scholarships received. The program covers tuition, living expenses, books, required fees, and may include child care expenses for students with dependent children.
The selection process recognizes the potential of all students, especially rural students, with no minimum GPA requirement. Applicants should demonstrate academic potential, community engagement and service to others, work ethic, and motivation and mindset—believing success comes from hard work and growth, rising to challenges, and persisting despite obstacles.
In addition to financial support, Ford Opportunity Scholars receive personal and professional support, lifetime connection with the Ford Family alumni community, academic guidance, and leadership development.
Residents of Siskiyou County may attend Oregon Institute of Technology, Southern Oregon University, or Klamath Community College if they qualify for in-state tuition.
