Shady Canyon Golf Club, in partnership with the Orange County Community Foundation, has established a scholarship program to assist employees and their dependent children who plan to continue their education in college or vocational school programs.
This program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarship, tuition assistance and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals. Awards are granted without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability, or national origin.

Recipients attending a two-year college or vocational-technical school full-time are eligible to receive $2,500. Recipients attending two-year college or vocational-technical part-time are eligible to receive $1,000.
Recipients attending a four-year college or graduate school (full-time or part-time) are eligible to receive $5,000- $7,500. Recipients who demonstrate the greatest financial need and/or who are enrolling as juniors, seniors or graduate students the upcoming academic year will receive the maximum award amount.
Awards are not renewable; however, students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements.
Awards are for undergraduate (two- or four-year college, university or vocational-technical school) and graduate study.
Scholarship recipients are selected on the basis of academic record, demonstrated leadership and participation in school and community activities, work experience, a statement of goals and aspirations, unusual personal or family circumstances, and an online recommendation.
Selection of recipients is made by Scholarship America. In no instance does any officer or employee of Orange County Community Foundation play a part in the selection. Not all applicants to the program will be selected as recipients. Students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements. All applicants agree to accept the decision as final.
All applicants will be notified in late October.
Scholarship America processes scholarship payments on behalf of Orange County Community Foundation. Scholarship checks are made payable to the attending institutions and mailed to the student in one installment in December.
