Foundation For The Carolinas Scholarships: What Cabarrus County Students Should Know Before December 1

2 days ago
2 min read

Many Cabarrus County families do not realize that one of the largest scholarship programs in the region is run from uptown Charlotte. Foundation For The Carolinas manages more than 150 scholarships for high school seniors, graduate students and adults going back to school. The next application window opens December 1, 2026.

What Foundation For The Carolinas Is

Foundation For The Carolinas is a community foundation based at Belk Place, 220 N. Tryon St., Charlotte, NC 28202. Donors set up funds there, and the foundation manages the giving, including scholarship funds created by families, businesses and organizations.

Its scholarships are open to high school seniors, graduate students and what the foundation calls non-traditional scholars, which can include adults returning to school. Adults heading back to school may also want our Cabarrus County jobs and workforce guide.

Key Dates

The foundation says its 2027-2028 scholarship application cycle opens December 1, 2026 and runs through March 5, 2027. Its scholarship season runs December through March each year.

Each scholarship sets its own rules, and some may close earlier or require extra items. Check each listing's deadline rather than waiting for the last week.

How to Apply

Applications go through the foundation's online scholarship portal at fftcscholarships.communityforce.com. You create an account, search the database for funds that match your school, county, field of study or background, and apply to each one that fits.

Some funds are open to students across the Carolinas, and others are limited to certain counties, schools or employers. The scholarship page does not list Cabarrus-only funds, so search the portal for Cabarrus County, your high school and your intended college.

How to Get Ready Now

Before December 1, gather your transcript, a short list of activities and jobs, two people willing to write recommendations, and a copy of your family's financial aid information. Many scholarships ask for an essay, so start a draft about your goals and the challenges you have worked through.

Ask your school counselor to help you review the portal. Questions can go to the foundation at (704) 973-4500 or through the contact form on fftc.org. Students who want help with grades before applying can find free tutoring in Concord.
