We empower students and lifelong learners by providing scholarships, grants, and resources to help ensure everyone can reach their full potential. Review the application process below to be considered through our universal application process. We recommend completing this application on a computer using Google Chrome as your browser. We do not suggest trying to complete this application on your phone.
You do not need to complete a separate application for each scholarship.
The universal application is a single form that matches your answers to the scholarship(s) for which you qualify.
After submitting your application, you will be directed to your dashboard where you will find the scholarship(s) that you qualify for. Some of these scholarships may have additional questions or requests that must be filled out to be considered for the scholarship. You may fill out everything in that moment or you can log back in to complete your application. The deadline for submissions and all questions is 11:59 pm EST February 1.
As a user of the universal application portal, you may occasionally receive emails related to your request. Emails received from the system will come from the following email address: administrator@grantinterface.com.
If you are expecting emails and are not receiving them, it is likely that your email provider’s spam filter has caught the correspondence. Check your spam folder and add @grantinterface.com to your address book or contacts. This will ensure that you continue receiving email communication regarding your application.

No. Be sure to check your dashboard for scholarship–specific follow-up questions that must be completed. After completing any additional questions or requests, be sure to submit your application for review. If you do not submit your application after completing scholarship-specific questions, your application will not be considered.
Each scholarship has eligibility requirements. Based on your universal application responses and the scholarship criteria, your application did not match with any of the scholarship opportunities.
If you believe you met all the criteria for a specific scholarship, but did not get matched with that opportunity, you may request a review of your application by emailing scholarships@bccf.org or calling 610.685.2223. Requests for review must take place before the February 1st deadline. After review, possible next steps will be discussed.
Applications cannot be submitted after 11:59 pm EST on February 1. In order to maintain a fair process, we cannot make exceptions.
Most Universal Application scholarship decisions are announced no later than April. Email notifications will be sent to all students regarding final decisions. Please check your junk/spam folder.
Please email scholarships@bccf.org with your updates.
Scholarship payments will be sent directly to the student’s school beginning July 1st. (Delays in sending out payments typically occur when we do not have completed scholarship acceptance forms from students.) It usually takes several weeks for schools to receive and process payments. Please contact your school directly to confirm receipt of your scholarship payment.
That scholarship application process opens on May 15 with a May 31 deadline. Check back then for more information.
Please send questions to scholarships@bccf.org.
We're here for you.
We wish you the best of luck as you continue your education. If you have any questions, you can email scholarships@bccf.org or call us at 610.685.2223 and ask for Kim Sheffer, Lifelong Learning Program Officer.
