Eligibility

Graduating seniors from Coal Ridge, Grand Valley, and Rifle High Schools and recent GED achievers. Graduating seniors residing in Garfield County District RE-2 or RE-16 who attend local, publicly funded alternative high schools are also eligible to apply. Students whose family’s adjusted gross income is over $90,000 are unlikely to be eligible unless there are special circumstances. Applicants must show motivation and potential to succeed in college or vocational school. Applicants must plan to attend a not-for-profit school that matches their interests and should consider the affordability of the schools they are identifying.
