No. LaunchNW Promise Scholarships help to “fill the gap” between existing aid and a student’s full cost of tuition or attendance. Students will be required to complete a FAFSA or WASFA to apply for a LaunchNW scholarship. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or Washington Application for State Financial Aid (WASFA) and other financial aid applications are a crucial step to opening doors to a post-high school education and career.

LaunchNW convenes partners who support and facilitate students as they apply for federal and state aid, as well as institutional grants and scholarships of all types. Learn more about the opportunities FAFSA/WASFA unlock.
