DANIELS OPPORTUNITY SCHOLARSHIPS

The Daniels Opportunity Scholarship program seeks to get scholarship funding into the hands of non-traditional students such as adults pursuing education later in life, GED recipients, transfer students, young people from the foster care system, and students exiting juvenile justice programs.

The Daniels Fund distributes the scholarship funding in block grants to specific colleges and universities, both two- and four-year in Colorado, New Mexico Utah and Wyoming. The institutions then convert the funding into scholarships and distribute it directly to students. Please note that the institutions themselves allocate the funding and the Daniels Fund is in no way involved in identifying specific students who will receive the scholarships.

The following colleges and universities are current recipients of Daniels Opportunity Scholarships. Contact them directly to apply for a scholarship.
