How to receive scholarship funds:

Students may contact Gunn Foundation once they have received a letter from the us informing them that they are awardees of the scholarship. The scholarship funds are then available to them for college-related expenses starting immediately. 

For college-related expenses that are to be incurred during the spring semester or over the summer (such as housing deposits, computer purchases, etc), a partial payment (up to 50% of your scholarship amount) may be requested. In order to process the payment, the following are needed:

• The student’s current mailing address and

• A copy of the college acceptance letter and

• documentation regarding the expense that might be incurred

Please email the above to: scholarships@gunnfound.org

In the Fall, once the student has enrolled in college, in order to receive the remaining or full scholarship money, the following are needed:

• The student’s current mailing address – either new or old (whichever is preferable for receiving mail) and 

• Any one of the following as proof of enrollment: 

  1. a copy of the student’s class schedule with the student’s name on it or 

  2. a letter of verification from the Office of the Registrar or 

  3. a copy of the student’s Identification Card with a registration sticker showing the current year.

Please email the above to scholarships@gunnfound.org

Students who have been selected for scholarships from the DVB Foundation should send an email to scholarships@gunnfound.org for instructions on how to receive the award.

NOTE: If the student has decided to delay going to college by a year, Gunn Foundation must be informed as soon as possible. The due date to request scholarship funds for the 2024-2025 school year or to notify Gunn Foundation of plans to defer for up to one year is Friday, December 1, 2025. The award may be received up to a year later. The last date to collect the award is December 1, 2026. Thereafter, the award will be canceled.
