National Academy Scholarship

The National Academy Scholarship is available to students enrolled to start school at the Academy who live in the United States. Applicants must submit a completed scholarship application along with a two-page essay outlining the talents they possess that make them well-suited to their area of study, why they believe the Academy is their school of choice, and what their career plans are upon graduation from the Academy.

Applicants must also submit two letters of recommendation from either past or present educators and/or employers and must have completed their financial aid package requirements as defined by the Financial Aid Office. The deadline for submission is March 15 for students entering in the Spring term, June 15 for entry into the Summer term, September 15 for entry into the Fall term, and December 15 for entry into the Winter term. Awards will be based on potential performance in an educational program and applicants meeting all conditions of the application process. Selection of scholarship winners and the amount of the award is determined, collectively, by the Scholarship Review Committee. Awards may range from $500 to $2,500 for each scholarship recipient with awards of less than $1,000 being applied in the student's first quarter of attendance and awards of $1,001 or greater applied in equal quarterly installments during the student's first three quarters of attendance. Scholarship funds will not be paid in cash.
