Foundation scholarships available for Franklin County adult learners

Adult learners from Franklin County who are returning to school may be eligible to apply for the Hugh and Elizabeth Montgomery Scholarship.

Preference is given to students for whom a scholarship would make a significant difference in their ability to attend school. First-time applicants need not be enrolled in a degree-granting program but are encouraged to make that commitment before applying for renewal consideration, according to a news release from the foundation.

The deadline for applications is Saturday, Oct. 15.

To apply, visit mainecf.org/scholarships. For more information, contact Jackie Shannon, scholarship coordinator, at 207-412-2004 or jshannon@mainecf.org.
