I applied for a scholarship. What happens next?

Check the Foundation website

The names of individuals being offered scholarships will be posted on the LCC Foundation website by mid-June. Do not call the Foundation Office for results.

Email notifications to students offered scholarships

Email notifications are sent to students being offered scholarships. Emails will be coming from LCCScholarships@lanecc.edu.

Check your spam folder if your name is listed as a scholarship recipient on the Foundation website, but you did not receive an email notification. For additional assistance, email the Foundation at: LCCScholarships@lanecc.edu. Put your full name and "Notification Question" in the subject line.

Students who did not receive scholarships

We do not send results to students who have not received a scholarship.

Accepting your scholarship

Your email notification will give you instructions for accepting your scholarship. This will include writing a thank you to the donor who provided your scholarship. You must complete the online confirmation form by the specified date or your scholarship will be automatically forfeited. If you have questions, send an email to LCCScholarships@lanecc.edu. Put your full name and "Scholarship Confirmation Question" in the subject line.

Declining your scholarship offer

Students who are declining an award will be asked to complete a very brief online form. This will allow us to offer your scholarship to another deserving student.

Eligibility requirements to receive your scholarship

Complete your required online scholarship acceptance, which will also include a donor thank you, by the date specified in your Notification Email. If you fail to do this, your scholarship will be forfeited.

Scholarship recipients are expected to meet with their donors either at a Foundation event or in a personal meeting arranged by Foundation staff (you will be notified well in advance of such an event/meeting). If you cannot participate in such an event/meeting when requested, please discuss your personal situation with the Foundation's' Scholarship Coordinator.

You must meet all of the criteria listed for your scholarship. Full-time enrollment is required for most scholarships, as well as maintaining satisfactory academic progress. Some scholarships require acceptance into specific programs. Failure to meet these requirements can result in the forfeiture of your scholarship.

Update your contact information

Contact the Foundation Office to update your email and mailing address. We use the information from your scholarship application to communicate with you. The Foundation Office has a separate database and updating your contact information through the college (MyLane) does not update our records.

Scholarship Disbursements

Scholarship funds will be applied to student accounts in three equal installments (Fall/Winter/Spring). Installments will appear in your MyLane account after the second week of each term. Students will not receive their scholarship disbursement if there are any holds on their account.

Foundation Scholarship Exception Request

Scholarship disbursements are made after the second week of each term. If you did not receive your funds, it is possible that you no longer meet the requirements to maintain your award. If you have special circumstances that you would like the Foundation to review, you will need to fill out a Foundation Scholarship Exception Request form.

Purchasing books with your scholarship

Students wishing to purchase books should contact the staff in the bookstore for further information.
