Each year, the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation awards more than $1 million to Chautauqua County residents furthering their education. Scholarships are available for graduating high school seniors, undergraduate and graduate students, as well as, adult learners.

The Foundation also offers additional scholarships, outside of its general application process, for students studying music education, in need of workforce training or certificates, and Jamestown residents attending Jamestown Community College or Jamestown Business College.

That application includes the following scholarships, with deadlines to apply:

  • Workforce Training Scholarship – rolling deadline
  • Joint Neighborhood Project/CEO Scholarship Fund – Due April 1
  • Various scholarships for music education and lessons for students in grades K-11 and high school seniors and college students – Due June 1
