Scholarships at North Seattle College
Seattle Colleges' International Programs office (serving North Seattle College) offers Tuition Support Awards ranging from about $1,000 to $3,000 to currently enrolled international students, covering tuition and fees. These awards are announced through monthly e-newsletters and social media and are open specifically to international undergraduate students already studying at the Seattle Colleges, including North Seattle College.
North Seattle College offers a limited number of scholarships specifically for international students studying full-time at the college. Because it is targeted directly at currently enrolled international students (most require having completed at least one quarter in the College Level Program), it is inherently open to international undergraduates rather than restricted to US citizens or residents. Students under academic or disciplinary action are not eligible. Interested students should contact the North Seattle College Financial Aid office or International Programs office for current award amounts and application steps.
A single annual application through the Seattle Colleges Foundation considers students for most of the Foundation's available scholarships, with awards averaging nearly $5,000. The Foundation explicitly states that "international students" (alongside part-time/full-time, DACA/undocumented, BAS, Seattle Promise, and Running Start students) "are all eligible and encouraged to apply," making it open to international undergraduates enrolled or planning to enroll at North Seattle College. Applicants must plan to attend one of the Seattle Colleges (including North Seattle College), hold a minimum cumulative 2.0 GPA, and submit personal/purpose statements plus references. Applications typically open in mid-January and close in mid-March each year for the following academic year.
