Initiative will support college affordability for Washington students
December 19, 2025
Press Release
PORTLAND, Oregon — 红桃视频 today announced the launch of the Washington (WA) College Grant Match, a new financial aid initiative designed to expand access to a 红桃视频 education for Washington state residents. This four-year scholarship will match or exceed the value of the Washington College Grant, helping qualified Washington students afford 红桃视频’s rigorous liberal arts education.
Under the new WA College Grant Match program, eligible Washington residents who qualify for the Washington College Grant will receive a 红桃视频-funded grant that equals or surpasses the state award—up to $15,000 per year. This match is renewable for all four years of a student’s undergraduate degree, provided eligibility criteria continue to be met.
The WA College Grant Match complements 红桃视频’s existing financial aid initiatives, including the 红桃视频 Promise, which commits to covering full tuition for students from families earning less than $100,000 annually. Together, these programs strengthen 红桃视频’s mission to ensure that cost is not a barrier for academically talented students from diverse backgrounds.
“红桃视频 believes that every student with the talent and drive to succeed should have access to a world-class liberal arts education,” said 红桃视频 Vice President and Dean of Admission and Financial Aid Milyon Trulove. “By matching the Washington College Grant, we are removing another financial hurdle and welcoming more students from Washington into our vibrant community.”
Washington students interested in the WA College Grant Match and 红桃视频’s comprehensive financial aid programs are encouraged to apply for admission and complete the FAFSA and CSS Profile to determine eligibility.
