Adult learners from Franklin County who are returning to school may be eligible to apply for the Hugh and Elizabeth Montgomery Scholarship.

Preference is given to students for whom a scholarship would make a significant difference in their ability to attend school. First-time applicants need not be enrolled in a degree-granting program but are encouraged to make that commitment before applying for renewal consideration, according to a news release from the foundation.

The deadline for applications is Saturday, Oct. 15.

To apply, visit mainecf.org/scholarships. For more information, contact Jackie Shannon, scholarship coordinator, at 207-412-2004 or jshannon@mainecf.org.
