The National Federation of the Blind believes in investing in the future by 
supporting the college education of deserving legally blind students.  We 
urge you to apply to have the possibility of winning two scholarships, 
national and/or state.
The National Federation of the Blind’s annual scholarship program is the 
largest of its kind in the nation. Every year, the NFB awards more than 
$120,000 to blind scholars across the fifty states, the District of 
Columbia, and Puerto Rico in recognition of their achievements and 
professional aspirations. Share this opportunity that invests in the future 
of blind people. Learn about the eligibility and requirements of the 2020 
scholarship program. All blind high school seniors and college students are 
encouraged to apply!

The National Federation of the Blind of New Jersey’s annual scholarship 
program awards up to $6,000 to blind scholars across the state (each winner 
receives $1,000.00). Any legally blind, full-time college student or 
graduating high school seniors who will be attending college full-time in 
the fall of 2020 may apply. All finalists must attend the entire National 
Federation of the Blind of New Jersey state convention, to be held in 
November. All blind high school seniors and college students are encouraged 
to apply!



Complete one application and you can win two scholarships! The application 
deadline for both programs is March 31, 2020.
