Washington Scholarships
Living or studying in Washington qualifies you for scholarships that most students never see: statewide awards restricted to WA residents, where the applicant pool is a fraction of any national contest. These verified awards sit on top of the national scholarships and Washington's own state aid programs, so treat them as one layer of a larger funding plan.

Common questions
How many Washington scholarships are there?
Award Scholar currently lists 2 verified scholarships for Washington students, with amounts and deadlines checked against each sponsor's official page. The median award is around $2,500, and the largest reaches $2,500.
What Washington financial aid exists beyond scholarships?
Washington runs its own aid programs, including Washington College Grant, administered by Washington Student Achievement Council. File the FAFSA (As soon as possible after the FAFSA opens. Awards are made while funds last.) to unlock them, then stack private scholarships on top. See the full Washington financial aid guide for deadlines and eligibility.
Can Washington students also win national scholarships?
Yes. Statewide awards restrict the applicant pool to Washington residents, which improves your odds, but they are one layer. Most winning students combine state-restricted awards, national scholarships that match their profile, and state aid.
When is the next deadline?
The next verified deadline in this group is July 31, 2026. Deadlines are spread across the whole year, so a miss is never fatal — new windows open every month.
