The Washington Scholars program recognizes the accomplishments of two high school students from each of the 49 state legislative districts. High school principals nominate the top 1 percent of the graduating class on the basis of academic achievement, leadership, and community service. A committee, composed of high school principals and college admissions staff, makes the final selection. Students can use the grants at any public or independent college or university in Washington.

* Be a Washington State resident;
* Be graduating from a Washington public or private
high school in the current award year
* Be enrolled at an eligible college or university following high school graduation
* Not be pursuing a postsecondary degree in theology
