The College Bound Scholarship helps make college possible for students whose families can’t pay some or all of the costs of a higher education. The scholarship pays for tuition at certain Washington colleges and universities. It also will cover some fees and provide a small allowance for books.

Current seventh- and eighth-grade students whose families meet income guidelines or who are in foster care can apply online. The deadline to sign up is June 30 of a student’s eighth-grade year.

Washington state has a prepaid college tuition program to help with tuition costs. You can prepay tomorrow’s college tuition with today’s dollars, and your money is guaranteed to keep pace with rising college tuition, no matter how much it increases in the future.
