COFLT Student Scholarhips

These scholarships recognize outstanding commitment to the study of a second language. COFLT awards up to four (4) scholarships of $1000 each under this program: 
  • one for a senior at a high school with 500 students or fewer, 
  • two for seniors at high schools of any size, 
  • one for a student at the college/university level. 
The deadline for scholarship applications is April 1. Applicants will be notified of their award status by May 1. These funds are intended to pay for tuition, fees, and other official college or university expenses associated with pursuing a formal degree program.


ONLY applications submitted via the COFLT website will be considered for COFLT honors and awards.  Please note that incomplete applications will not receive consideration. 

All inquiries and contact regarding awards should be sent to: cofltawards@gmail.com

Before starting the form below, please gather the following materials:

  • A 300-word personal statement written by the applicant that addresses each of the following questions:
  1. Why is the study of languages important to you personally?
  2. In what ways do you use your language of study outside of the classroom?
  3. How do you intend to apply your study of languages in your future plans?
  4. What are your interests outside of the classroom that are not language related?
