The Scholarship Foundation of Santa Barbara helps students across Santa Barbara County access higher education through scholarships and financial aid advising. Eligible students can receive a total of four years of undergraduate funding and four years of medical/graduate level funding. The primary criteria for award selection are financial need, potential, and motivation. Our scholarships are funded by annual support from more than 1,200 private and community foundations, corporations, and individual donors, many of which have been contributing to the Scholarship Foundation for 10 years or more. We currently manage more than 500 scholarship funds, and do not charge administration fees to our donors. In May 2025, we awarded more than $7.7 million in scholarship funding to 2,125 students.
