ETHS Scholarship Program

Evanston Township High School is proud to award scholarships that celebrate the achievements, ambitions, and potential of our students. These scholarships are managed by College and Career Services and made possible by the generosity of our community members, alumni, organizations, and families who invest in the future of ETHS graduates.

Each year, ETHS seniors can apply for a range of scholarships that reflect their passions, financial needs, plans for continued education, and contributions to their community. Thanks to the generosity of those who believe in ETHS, tens of thousands of dollars in scholarships are available to support seniors as they pursue their post-high school goals.

How to Apply 

Beginning February 2026, students may apply online by logging into myETHS. Applications are due on a date to be determined in March 2026. All applicants will be notified of their award status in April 2026.

Seniors are encouraged to apply for all ETHS scholarships for which they are eligible. If a student is selected for multiple scholarships, they will be awarded only the scholarship with the highest monetary value.

Note: ETHS has verified the intent of each donor to provide funding for these scholarships. However, some scholarships are disbursed directly by the sponsoring organizations, and ETHS cannot be held responsible if a sponsor is unable to fulfill its funding commitment.
