Any graduating senior of Hazen High School may apply for a scholarship. These scholarships may be used at any accredited college, university, vocational or technical school. Students from all levels and abilities are encouraged to apply. Hazen Area Dollars for Scholars applications are scored anonymously by a local selection committee using the Scholarship America® standardized evaluation process, scoring guidelines and/or other criteria established by the wishes of the scholarship donor. Scoring criteria is based on a variety of qualities including work experience, school and community activities, and academic record. Applications are available at the high school and on our school website.

Hazen Area Dollars for Scholars scholarships are made possible through tax-exempt donations and fundraisers, which include our annual Phone-a-Thon, alumni mailings, newsletters, etc. The money Hazen Area Dollars for Scholars continues to raise each year goes where it belongs - right to the students.
