2011-2012 Scholarships Announcement
The Society of
American Military Engineers, Hampton Roads Post intends to award multiple $500
- $2,000 scholarships to Engineering, Architecture, Interior Design and
Construction Management Students for the 2011-2012 school year. Applicants
must be enrolled, or planning to enroll, in a full-time undergraduate
Engineering, Architecture, Interior Design or Construction Management degree
program at an accredited college or university in the fall term of 2011.
Applicants who have earned an undergraduate degree or who are enrolled in a
graduate degree program are not eligible. All applicants must also have a
minimum GPA of 3.0 (on a 4.0 basis) to be eligible to apply. The minimum GPA
requirement applies to both high school and college students. No scholarship
will be awarded for those pursuing an associate; second undergraduate or
graduate school degree. Students attending a community or junior college must
be enrolled in a program of studies designed to allow the student to transfer
directly into a four-year program. Applicants who receive an appointment to one
of the U.S. Military Academies (or affiliated preparatory schools) or are
awarded a full scholarship at any accredited U.S. post-secondary institution of
higher education are not eligible to receive funds from this program. A full
scholarship is usually defined as one that provides for payment of tuition,
books, lab fees, and other related expenses. An
ROTC scholarship is considered a full scholarship. There is no
requirement for the student or parent to be part of a SAME Post. However, preference will be given to students
who are members of a SAME Student Post or whose parents, guardians, or sponsors
are members of SAME. Sponsors must
provide a letter of recommendation as part of the application package. For a list of sustaining member companies,

not a requirement and The Post reserves the right to offer scholarships to any
qualified candidates. Application forms are available here: High School Student Application The scholarship application evaluation criteria are attached as an
