SCHOLARSHIPS

---

Scholarships will be awarded in the amount of $1000 and $500 for the next fall or spring term of school the applicant will be attending. Applicant must be enrolled as a student at a graduate school, college, university, trade or business school.

Awards will be sent directly to the graduate school, college, university, trade or business school in the name of the recipient in the form of a check. To receive the award, verification will be required from the recipient.

There will be no consideration given whatsoever because of friendship, rank or grade of applicant, applicant’s parents or applicant’s spouse. Neither shall the applicant’s geographical place of residence be considered. Awards will be made on the basis of merit from an essay.

All applicants will complete a one-page essay, single-spaced, Times New Roman, 12 font, with one inch margins on the following topic:

What does service mean to you, and how do you give service in your community?

The deadline date for all applications for scholarships will be observed in all instances.

Former recipients of a Rough Rider Society Scholarship Award are not eligible to reapply.  Those persons who have applied previously and were not selected may reapply. Current members of the NDNG are not eligible.

If the recipient does not complete the school term for which the scholarship is awarded, due to any cause other than sickness or physical injury, the recipient will refund the award to the Rough Rider Society within sixty (60) days from the date of disenrollment.

Scholarship applications may be sent electronically or by mail to the scholarship chairperson.  Each application will be reviewed for completeness and forwarded to the Rough Rider Society Scholarship Committee.
