2024 Scholarship Acceptance Instructions

How Do I Accept My Scholarship Award?  

Students should fill out and sign their Scholarship Award/Consent Form, and then upload it via our online portal.

For existing users:

• Do not create a new profile.
• Log into your account.

For new users:

• Review the Scholarship Portal Tutorial before accessing the site for the first time.
• Use the tutorial’s helpful hints to set up an account and learn how to navigate the portal.
• Select “Create New Account” to create your log-in credentials.

Since visibility of the form is restricted, you must enter the password that’s been provided in your award letter in the upper right-hand corner to accept your scholarship. After entering the code and selecting “ENTER CODE,” you will see the 2024 form and should complete it. Our online portal closes on July 15, 2024 or August 15, 2024 (midnight), depending on the award you have received. Award submission requests will be handled in the order in which they are received. Note that this time of year is a busy transaction period, so please plan accordingly.

The earlier your scholarship payment is received by your college or university, the faster the bill payment requirement can be removed from your records. This proactive step ensures that payment delays won’t interfere with class enrollment holds, cause class removals, or impede dorm assignments due to account holds.

For questions or concerns, send an email to scholarships@cfnj.org. You will receive a response to your inquiry within 72 hours and in the order in which it was received. Verification for submittals and payments can only be found by accessing the online portal.
