National Federation of the Blind 2016 Scholarship Program
_www.nfb.org/scholarships_ (http://www.nfb.org/scholarships)
Deadline: March 31, 2016
Are you a legally blind college student living in the United States or
Puerto Rico? This annual program offers 30 scholarships worth from $3,000 to
$12,000 to eligible students, from high school seniors beginning their
freshman year in the fall semester of 2016, up through grad students working on
their PhD degrees. These merit scholarships are based on academic
excellence, community service, and leadership. In addition to the money, each winner
will receive assistance to attend the July 2016 NFB annual convention in
Orlando, Florida providing an excellent opportunity for high-level
networking with active blind persons in many different professions and occupations.
To apply, read the rules and the Submission Checklist, complete the
official 2016 Scholarship Application Form (online or in print), supply all
required documents, and request and complete one interview by an NFB affiliate
president (unless the president requests a later date). Applications are
accepted through March 31. Go to _www.nfb.org/scholarships_
(http://www.nfb.org/scholarships) for complete rules and requirements.
Please also consult your state president as many of our state affiliates
also award scholarships. A list of state affiliate president information
can be found at: https://nfb.org/state-presidents-list.

Federation of the Blind. Live the Life You Want."
