(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) - High school seniors can now apply for the 2025 Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship (LECSP) by going to the Dearborn Community Foundation, Inc. (DCF) website: dearborncf.org. There are two scholarships available for 2025!

DCF administers the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship (LECSP) Program in Dearborn County for Indianapolis-based Lilly Endowment Inc. The two recipients of the 2025 Lilly Endowment Scholarship receive full tuition, required fees and a special allocation of up to $900 per year for required books and equipment for four years of undergraduate study on a full-time basis leading to a baccalaureate degree at any eligible Indiana public or private nonprofit college or university. LECSP scholars may also participate in the Lilly Scholars Network (LSN), which connects scholars with resources and opportunities to be active leaders on their campuses and in their communities. Both the scholarship program and the LSN are supported by grants from Lilly Endowment Inc. to Independent Colleges of Indiana (ICI).

The two recipients of the 2025 Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship will be announced in early December 2024. The application deadline for the 2025 LECSP is 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday, September 4, 2024.
