Both part-time and full-time vocational students are eligible to apply. The application deadline is Monday, May 17, 2021, at 11:59 p.m.

“This scholarship is optimal for students who are pursuing a vocational education while also working,” says Purestyn Milk, Doyon Foundation scholarship manager. “We understand the difficulties of balancing work with school, and we’re grateful for Alyeska’s partnership to help support these students.”

The scholarship is specifically for students in programs focused on one of the following discipline areas:

  • Heavy equipment/diesel mechanics
  • Process technology/instrumentation
  • Construction
  • Welding
  • Electrical training
  • CDL

To be eligible for the scholarship, applicants must:

  • Be enrolled to Doyon, Limited or be the child of an original enrollee
  • Be accepted or enrolled in a one- to three-year program in one of the focus discipline areas (described above)
  • Maintain a minimum GPA of 2.0

To apply, interested students should complete Doyon Foundation’s 2021 – 2022 competitive scholarship application, available online at www.doyonfoundation.com. Note that students will not apply specifically for the Alyeska scholarship, but should complete the general competitive scholarship application. The applications will then be reviewed following the Foundation’s competitive scholarship review process.
