STARS Scholarship Application

All information will be kept confidential.

Participants with financial need can apply for a scholarship to participate in STARS activities. To be considered for a scholarship your application must be completed and submitted to STARS by May 15th or December 1st (depending on the season). If you have questions or need assistance, please call 970-870-1950. Please remember that reservations are required utilizing the “pay later” option on our STARS reservation system for all lessons, programs, or camps. Make your reservation in advance and inform the STARS reservationist you are or have applied for a scholarship.

Award decisions are based on need and available funds. Incomplete applications will not be considered. Please answer each question as completely as possible or note N/A (not applicable) in the space provided.

Scholarships are non-transferable. Please notify STARS if you are unable to use your scholarship. Unused scholarships cannot be applied to the next season or year.

All scholarships will incur a $25 application fee. Your credit card will be charged following the review of your scholarship. Any costs not covered by the scholarship must be paid in full prior to participating. You will receive a phone call and an email to confirm your scholarship award (if applicable).
