William A March Education Fund
Scholarship America hosts and administers the William A. March Education Trust Scholarship program page used for applications and program details; the foundation’s Form 990 references the ScholarsApply/Scholarship America application URL. The page includes eligibility, award amounts (up to $5,000), deadlines, and contact information for the program administrator.

Ideal Applicant
An individual student meeting the scholarship eligibility criteria who can apply through the Scholarship America portal, typically based in Pennsylvania (Pittsburgh-area).
Good Fit
- • Student status and meeting the program’s eligibility criteria listed on the ScholarsApply page
- • Ability to submit via the Scholarship America online application and follow stated deadlines
- • Residence or study in Pennsylvania when the award is restricted by state
- • Application materials that align with the scholarship’s stated purpose (educational support)
Geography
Observed awards are geographically narrow: recent years’ grants are concentrated entirely in Pennsylvania (primarily Pittsburgh), with only a tiny out-of-state share appearing in one prior year.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funds many distinct recipients each year (11–16 awards annually), but the recipient type and purpose are narrow—individual scholarship recipients—so institutional and mission diversity is limited despite a sizable recipient count.
New Applicants
There is a clear public application path administered by Scholarship America and each observed year shows new recipient cohorts rather than repeat organizational grantees, indicating unfamiliar individual applicants can access awards through the published process.
