BAF provides oversight for over 190 scholarship funds established by individuals, firms and organizations wishing to assist students in furthering their education. While the majority of scholarships benefit Raleigh County applicants, there are scholarships designated for Fayette, Summers, Webster, and Wyoming students.

BAF’s application process uses a ‘universal approach’ allowing the applicant to be directed to multiple scholarship opportunities, for which they are eligible, while completing only one common application. Applications are due on March 1st!

Attention:  When you get to the part of the application for High School Attendance choose the name of your home high school.  When you get to the part of the application for Other High School make sure you type ACT into that box.  There is a scholarship just for ACT students so to be considered for this scholarship you must type in ACT under the Other High School box.
