Scholarships
Scholarships are an ideal way to support student success at Barstow Community College.
Scholarships assist BCC students with tuition, fees, textbooks, and other expenses associated with receiving their college education. They serve current Barstow College students as well as students who plan to transfer to a four-year institution. The Barstow College Foundation has numerous established scholarships to which donors may contribute by way of a donation to our general Scholarship Fund or we can work directly with individuals and corporations interested in establishing a new scholarship.
In 2026, more than 30 scholarships, totaling over $24,000, were awarded to BCC students thanks to the generosity of our dedicated donors.
“Receiving this scholarship reminds me that all of the hard work, sacrifices, and long days balancing school and work are worth it. As a future teacher and first-generation college student, this support motivates me to keep pushing toward my goals and give back to others through education."
-Kiersten Adriel Aldiano, 2026 Scholarship Recipient

Endowments
Establishing an Endowment: As the purpose of an endowed fund is to provide regular benefit in perpetuity, this requires preservation of the principle (corpus). Income from the fund less costs associated with managing the fund are available for support of the endowment’s designated purpose. In order to meet this standard, the Barstow College Foundation requires a minimum of $10,000 and acceptance by the Executive Committee and Foundation Board of Directors for a fund to be endowed.
Should a donor have a goal for the number of scholarships they would like their endowment to support, the Foundation is happy to confer with our Investment team and work with you to make sure your investment level will yield the appropriate funds.
