Ivan and Janet Brown along with Brown Medical Industries in Spirit Lake, have established a scholarship for GED or Alternative High School graduates. Recognizing that students who earn a high school degree through these programs exhibit tendencies to value their education the Browns wish to encourage these students to “Just Say Yes” to continue their education at Iowa Lakes Community College.

Eligible applicants must be planning to enroll full time (12+ credits) or part time (6+ credits), have achieved a minimum cumulative 2.5 during attendance at their Alternative High School or GED program and maintain a 2.5 GPA while attending Iowa Lakes. They must also display financial need determined by FAFSA form results.

Scholarship application deadline is April 1. Those interested in applying for or establishing scholarships are asked to contact Shan Ray, Iowa Lakes Institutional Advancement Executive Director, at 712-362-0491 or 800-242-5106 ext. 4491.
