Step 2: Check State Deadlines

State aid often has earlier deadlines than federal aid. Visit the Alaska Commission on Postsecondary Education for specific dates.

Step 3: Apply for State-Specific Programs

Some scholarships require separate applications. Check the official state website for any additional requirements.

Maximize Your Aid

Alaska scholarships can be combined with federal grants to cover more of your college costs. You may be eligible for both Pell Grants and state aid.
