Idaho LAUNCH pays up to 80% of tuition and fees, capped at $8,000, for Idaho resident high school graduates entering an approved in-demand career or technical program at an eligible Idaho institution. It carries no GPA or financial-need requirement, but students must complete a Career Pathway Plan and begin classes the fall after graduation. It is a one-time award per student, though longer programs can spread the funds across two years. Applications open October 1 and close April 15, with a November 30 priority deadline since funds are limited.
