Higher Education Funding is available for Tolowa Dee-ni’ Citizens wanting to further their education or attend Vocational Training.

The Tolowa Dee-ni’ Nation Education Department can also provide assistance, for High School Students who are enrolled in and taking college courses in conjunction with their high school classes.

Higher Education Funding applications are available on our TDN website under Education Department. They can also be picked up at the office.

Upon receiving funding (funding dispersed per semester/quarter), students are required to turn in their previous semester/quarter grades, and then the next semester/quarter class schedule to receive their next round of funding.

If you need further assistance, or have any questions, contact Diana Bommelyn, Education Technician, (707) 487-9255 ext. 1557, higher.education@tolowa.com.

Diana is also available to offer assistance, in person, if a student needs assistance filling out the application. The education office is located at 300 Dat-naa-svt~ Loop in Smith River, CA 95567.
