I applied for a scholarship. What happens next?

Email notifications are sent to students offered scholarships

Individuals who are offered a scholarship will receive a notification via their Lane issued Gmail by mid-June. Do not contact the Foundation Office for results.

Emails are NOT sent to students who have not been offered a scholarship. 

Notifications are sent from Scholarships@laneccfoundation.org

Accepting Your Scholarship

Your email notification will provide specific instructions for accepting your scholarship. You must complete the online confirmation form by the specified date or your scholarship will be automatically forfeited. If you have questions, send an email to Scholarships@laneccfoundation.org Put your full name and "Scholarship Confirmation Question" in the subject line.

The LCC Foundation does not send the list of recipients to Financial Aid at the beginning of the summer. It is possible scholarship awards will not be visible in myLane until the second week of September.

Declining Your Scholarship Offer

Students who are declining an award will be asked to complete a very brief online form. This will allow us to offer your scholarship to another deserving student.

Enrollment Requirements to Receive Your Scholarship

Complete your required online scholarship acceptance, which will also include paragraphs to your donor, by the date specified in your Notification Email. If you fail to do this, your scholarship will be forfeited.

Some scholarship donors will want to meet their recipient/s either at an LCC Foundation event or in a personal meeting arranged by LCC Foundation staff (you will be notified well in advance of such an event/meeting). If you cannot participate in such an event/meeting when requested, please discuss your personal situation with the LCC Foundation's Scholarship Coordinator.

You must meet the enrollment requirements listed for your scholarship. Full-time enrollment is required for most scholarships, as well as maintaining satisfactory academic progress. Students who are enrolled less than part-time do not qualify for LCC Foundation Scholarships. Some scholarships require acceptance into specific programs. Failure to meet these requirements can result in the forfeiture of your scholarship.

Update Your Contact Information

Contact Scholarships@laneccfoundation.org to update your email and mailing address. We use the information from your scholarship application to communicate with you. The LCC Foundation has a separate database from the College and updating your contact information through the College (MyLane) does not update our records.

Scholarship Disbursements

Scholarship funds will be applied to student accounts in three equal installments (Fall/Winter/Spring). Installments will appear in your MyLane account after the second week of each term. Students will not receive their scholarship disbursement if there are any holds on their account.

Foundation Scholarship Exception Request

Scholarship disbursements are made after the second week of each term. If you did not receive your funds, it is possible that you no longer meet the requirements to maintain your award. If you have special circumstances that you would like the LCC Foundation to review, you will need to fill out an LCC Foundation Scholarship Exception Request.
