• FEF Advantage PLUS Scholarship

     

    The Forney Education Foundation is proud to offer a Dual Credit Advantage PLUS Scholarship to high school students who enroll in and qualify for Dual Credit Courses with Eastfield College. The goal of the Dual Credit Advantage PLUS Scholarship is to increase opportunities for Forney ISD students to reach their full potential by opening doors in high school that help a broad and diverse range of students transition into post-secondary education.  

     

    Students that qualify for the Dual Credit Advantage Plus Scholarship only pay half of the tuition for each Dual Credit Advantage class, up to four classes per school year. The scholarship is paid through Forney ISD to Eastfield College to cover both the fall and spring semesters. Students are responsible for purchasing any textbooks and additional supplies required for the dual credit course.

     

    The Forney Education Foundation Dual Credit Advantage PLUS Scholarship was created to assist students in achieving college credit hours while still in high school and replaces the post graduate scholarship previously offered by the foundation.
