Applicants who were born on and currently reside on Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, or Nantucket are eligible to apply. Academic merit, extracurricular activities and financial need are also considered.

Scholarships are offered to graduating high school seniors for up to four years of an undergraduate program and current college students who are past recipients of a Cape Cod Association award. Applicants may attend two- and four-year colleges and universities, technical schools, and community colleges anywhere in the United States. The organization does not fund graduate education.
