Scholarships

Since 2019, the Alliance Française de Seattle offers a scholarship program for French learners. Scholarships can be valid for any group class—general, specialized, intensive, workshop, or summer camp. Every year, thanks to the support of our sponsors and private donors, AFSeattle continues to expand its support to families in need with a growing number of scholarships for youth and adults.
