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 2014, 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 2014 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; by or before the deadline, complete the official 2014 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 for five months,
from November 1, 2013, to March 31,2014. Go to www.nfb.org/scholarships for
complete rules and requirements.
