Welcome to the Scholarship Center

The York College Scholarship Center provides information and assistance to students looking for scholarships as well as specialized guidance for those students currently holding scholarships. We offer many scholarship options for ambitious, academically-talented students.

ALERT: When using other scholarship websites outside of York, “Please Be Aware of Scams”. DO NOT DEPOSIT CHECKS, CASH OR MONEY ORDERS TO ANY PROGRAMS OR GRANTS FOR ANY REASON. If it sounds suspicious, chances are they are not a real organization. No Scholarships or grants should ask you to send any form of money.  Report it to the Scholarship Center as soon as possible.
