Military children in the top 10 percent of their class could
receive a $4,800 scholarship through the Stuhr Scholarship Fund,
which opened its 2006 application process this week.
The fund is open to children of active-duty, reserve, guard and
retired military members. Fund officials said six scholarships
will be awarded next year, with the scholarships paid out over
four years of college.
To qualify, applicants must:
-
Be a high school
senior with a top 10 ranking in their class.
-
Have a minimum
SAT score of 1250, or an ACT score of 27.
-
Have plans to
attend a four-year accredited college or university, not a
community college or military academy.
-
Applicants must
show proof of their family’s military history as well as
leadership in their communities and in extracurricular
activities.
Officials said
applications are available by e-mailing fund administrators at
stuhrstudents@earthlink.net, or by sending a self-addressed
envelope to: The Stuhr Scholarship Fund, 3630 Thompson Bridge
Road, Suite 15, Box 120, Gainesville, GA 30506. The deadline for
applications is March 1, 2006.
