Scholarships
Softball scholarship awards are based on a combination of athletic ability and financial need. Awarding of scholarships is at the discretion of the coach within the guidelines of Crowder College and the National Junior College Athletic Association. Scholarship amounts range from partial (i.e. book loans) to full scholarships (tuition, fees, room, board, and books). All athletes receiving athletic scholarships must apply for and participate in federal financial aid programs (FAFSA) if they qualify.
