Description

The USS Indiana (SSN 789) Diane Donald Scholarship will be awarded to current or former crew members of USS Indiana (SSN 789) or the DOD recognized spouse or child of a current or former crew member of USS Indiana (SSN 789). This is not a renewable award but the student may re-apply for the following year and compete with other applicants. The scholarship will be awarded to current or former crew members or the DOD recognized spouse or child of a current or former crew member of USS Indiana (SSN 789) who have served aboard for a period of 180 days or more; all otherwise eligible retired or discharged veterans must have received an honorable discharge. Dependent children applicants must be a high school senior or be currently enrolled as a full-time student in a college or an accredited vocational or technical institute, who is working toward their first Associate's or Bachelor's degree. They must be unmarried and under the age of 24 at the time of the application deadline. Scholars attending any Military Service Academy are not eligible for the Dolphin Scholarship. Dependent spouse applicants must intend to or be enrolled as a full-time or part-time student with a minimum of 12 credit hours per year in order to receive their first Associate's or Bachelor's degree. All scholars are selected on the basis of academic proficiency as well as commitment and excellence in school and community activities. Although not a part of the actual selection process, financial need is considered once all financial aid assistance for an applicant has been determined.
