Extended Deadline! For The 2023 Zahn Scholarship Application
The Fred G. Zahn Scholarship was established to provide scholarships to students in the state of Washington who are
graduating high school and are continuing their education by attending a college, university, or post-graduate institute.
Bank of America, N.A., serves as Trustee. Scholarship awards for the current year will be $1,500 per student award winner.
In order to qualify, you must have:
• Graduated or be graduating from a high school located within Washington State
• Be attending any accredited college or university in the state of Washington and
• Have resided in Washington for at least six months.
Candidates are ranked according to those who by their effort, scholarship achievement and character have evidenced their
ability to benefit themselves and others by continuing their education. Financial need for assistance in order to continue
your education is one of the major considerations for awards.
Previous award winners will need to reapply each year to qualify for consideration.

Your application and all supporting documents must be emailed by Friday April 7th to

The Trustee will notify all applicants of the decisions made regarding scholarship awards by June 30. If awarded,
payment to your university or college is dependent on your response to this notification.
