Helping Pay for College

The Hennepin Tech Foundation offers a variety of scholarships to assist you with paying for your education, which are available to both new and returning students. Unline loans, scholarships do not need to be paid back.

Funded through contributions from alumni, faculty and staff, community members, and partner organizations, the Hennepin Tech Foundation awards an average of $350,000 every academic year including Workforce Development Scholarships, made possible by the Minnesota State Legislature.

We have made it simple – with one online application for all scholarships available through the Hennepin Tech Foundation. With one online application, students are automatically considered for all scholarships for which they meet eligibility criteria.
