Description

The Children and Spouse of Indiana National Guard Program is a supplement to other state grants by guaranteeing 100 percent of tuition and regularly assessed fees for students who are the child or spouse of a member of the Indiana National Guard who suffered a service-connected death while serving on state active duty. The supplemental grant is limited to a maximum of 124 semester credit hours. The maximum amount that an eligible applicant is exempt from paying for a semester hour is an amount equal to the cost of an undergraduate semester credit hour at the state educational institution in which the eligible applicant enrolls. Applicants must be an individual whose father, mother or spouse was a member of the Indiana National Guard and suffered a service-connected death while serving on state active duty. The deceased Indiana National Guard member must have been killed in the line of duty while deployed in the active military (Army or Air Force) or while engaged in other state active duty as determined by the Military Department of Indiana (MDI) under IC 10-6-7-7. Applicants must be eligible to pay the resident tuition rate (as determined by the institution) at an eligible institution. They must possess the requisite academic qualifications. The student must be children who are a biological or legally adopted child of the covered Indiana National Guard member, and spouses must have been married to the covered member at the time of death. At the time of legal adoption, a child must have been less than 24 years of age, unmarried with no dependents and not a veteran of the armed forces. Adoption by the spouse of the covered Indiana National Guard member is not valid for inclusion of a child in the program. Please visit the award's website or contact the Indiana Commission for Higher Education for more information.
