Sept. 22, 2026 – South Florida State College (SFSC) received a $15,000 grant from the William G. and Marie Selby Foundation, Inc. to provide scholarships for students at SFSC’s DeSoto Campus in Arcadia. These funds will be matched through the SFSC Foundation, bringing the total funds for scholarships to $30,000.
Annual scholarships will be awarded up to $1,500 for full-time students, up to $1,125 for students enrolled 9 and 11 hours, and up to $750 for students enrolled 6 and 8 hours. The criteria for obtaining a scholarship through the Selby Foundation is that there must be financial need, the student must be a resident of DeSoto County and a graduate of Desoto County High School, must be accepted or enrolled in a degree program at the SFSC DeSoto Campus, and must maintain a minimum of a 3.0 GPA to be considered for renewal.
Scholarships from the Selby Foundation grant are available for fall 2026 and spring 2027. If a student would like to apply for a scholarship for the summer 2027 term, they must be registered for summer classes by the second week of January 2027.
“Getting to the heart of helping students requires both caring people and funding,” said Dr. Asena Mott, dean of off-campus instructional sites at SFSC. “That’s where The Selby Foundation comes in. Their legacy of care is backed by financial support. For years, they have asked where they could help DeSoto students, and followed through with generosity. Their gifts have elevated students above stumbling blocks and into success. We are ever grateful!”
To apply for a scholarship through the Selby Foundation, students are encouraged to speak with a student advisor at the SFSC DeSoto Campus at 2251 NE Turner Avenue in Arcadia or call 863-993-1757.
