The Western Dakota Tech Foundation offers over 30 individual scholarships! Some are one award, but some are multiple awards, up to 70. See details here. The WDT Foundation Scholarships application opens twice a year.

Summer/Fall: January 1 - March 31.

Spring: August 1 - October 31.

The Spring 2023-2024 application window has passed. 

The Foundation Scholarship application is a universal application that automatically applies each student to every WDT Foundation Scholarship they are eligible for during the application term. It means that students may be awarded for more than one scholarship. The WDT Foundation awards over $500,000 annually in scholarships. 

*Build Dakota Scholarship requires a separate application*

Thank You Template for Students (Word document)  

• Each WDT Foundation Scholarship requires a thank you letter within two weeks of receiving an award notification email. 
  • A thank you letter must be received before the scholarship fund can be applied to your student account. Send it to WDTScholarship@wdt.edu. Don't let "not writing a thank you letter" be a reason your foundation scholarship(s) is revoked and re-awarded to the next person!
