These scholarships will support studies at NRCC during the academic year beginning in August. Scholarships of $1,000 will be awarded to qualified persons.

The awards are based primarily on financial need and scholastic achievement or potential, and are available to persons who are enrolled or intend to enroll in specific programs. Persons of all ages may be considered for NRCC Educational Foundation Scholarships.

For most scholarships, the applicant must be a resident of Virginia living in Giles, Floyd, Pulaski or Montgomery counties or the city of Radford; must enroll in a program of study or declare a major; furnish a fully completed application and two letters of recommendation from non-family members; and furnish copies of high school and/or college transcripts.
