 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.
