Scholarships for Specific Populations

Veterans, service members, and their family members can explore and receive scholarships to support their academic work, in addition to any GI benefits they may already be receiving. Scholarships specifically geared toward veterans and their families are often offered by government agencies, non-profit organizations within military communities, and others.

Veterans' experiences, leadership training, commitment, and academic interests often make them very competitive for all types of national scholarships, not just those specifically targeting veterans.
