Dear Educators, Librarians, and  

Counselors:

This program is for legally blind students in  

the
United States or Puerto Rico who will be attending college or  university 

in fall 2010.  We have 30 scholarships in our program.  Students apply to 

the scholarship
program (not for a particular  scholarship). The NFB 

Scholarship Committee chooses the 30 winners from  all who apply and later 

decides which scholarship
each of the thirty  winners will 

receive.

$12,000 –   1  award

$10,000 –   1 award

$  5,000 –   4  awards

$  3,000— 22 awards

Plus other gifts to our 30  scholarship 

winners.

Complete details are available on our  Website 

at
www.nfb.org/scholarships.

Please share this  information with other 

departments and agencies in our state that have  contact with blind college 

students. Please give it to any  high
school senior intent on entering college 

in fall 2010 or any  blind college student from college freshman up through 

working on a PhD,  and any counselor,
teacher, or parent working with a blind  

scholar.

Cordially,
