2012-2013 Scholarship Program
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 2012-2013 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 2012.
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.
