District Scholars Tuition Assistance Program

All high school graduates from Athens, Fairfield, Hocking, Perry, Pickaway or Ross counties are eligible for a one-year scholarship. Eligible students are required to submit an application. If you complete all necessary steps, you will automatically be a District Scholars recipient.

Your parent's Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) determines how much District Scholars Tuition Assistance (DSTA) money you are able to receive. DSTA will be applied toward tuition only, after any grants you've received from the federal government.

Award Determination Guidelines

If the parent's Adjusted Gross Income is:

$40,000 or Less DSTA pays up to full tuition, not covered by grants
$40,001 - $55,000 DSTA pays up to $950 of tuition per term, not covered by grants
Over $55,000 DSTA pays up to $640 of tuition per term, not covered by grants

Please complete the following steps to apply for the scholarship:

  1. Apply to Hocking College.
    You must enroll within one year of your high school graduation date and be accepted to qualify. Contact the Admissions Office at 877.HOCKING if you are unsure of your eligibility.
  2. Complete and submit the District Scholar Application and Contract.
  3. Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You must also apply for the Federal Pell Grant.
