They must be a matriculated student and attending school full time and a U.S. citizen. We will accept students who are not attending school full time as long as the part-time attendance is due to their disability and not their financial situation (minimum of 6 credits for undergraduate, 6 credits for graduate). Unfortunately, we are not able to award scholarships to high school students.</span><br><span></span><br><span>Upon winning, the student will prove disability and matriculation through their Disability Student Services department. We define disability as described under the ADA: "A physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities of such an individual. A record of such an impairment or being regarded as having such an impairment".</span><br><span></span><br><span>Be sure to submit your entry before the March 31, 2017 deadline.
