Scottsdale students are invited to apply for the Mayor’s Ability Awards, a scholarship designed to support college-bound students facing disabilities.  

The scholarship provides financial assistance to those who have demonstrated exceptional resilience in overcoming the challenges of living with a disability and have a strong desire to continue their education. The scholarship is led by the Mayor’s Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities and sponsored through a partnership with the Gila River Indian Community.

Eligible Scottsdale students who are planning to attend a college, university, vocational or trade school can submit their applications from now until March 21.


To ensure the best chance for success in completing the application, students are advised to seek assistance from their local academic counselor or transitional counselor. Detailed scholarship information and eligibility requirements for parents and participants are available on the city’s website at ScottsdaleAZ.gov, search “Ability Awards.”
