Scholarships for College

The Ysleta Education Foundation (YEF) awards scholarships to well-deserving students from the Ysleta Independent School District. These students receive scholarships for persevering despite having to overcome difficult life situations, have a passion for volunteering and making an impact in the El Paso community, and/or achieved academic success throughout high school.

Celebrating 28 Years of “Fulfilling Dreams by Investing in the Future”

YEF has awarded scholarships to over 1,600 well-deserving students who otherwise, may not have been able to attend college. The scholarships are strictly used for tuition, books, housing and related college expenses. YEF recipients are attending and graduating from colleges and universities across the United States.
