Although the
Scholarship Committee accepts applications
throughout the year, the funding cycle begins
September 1st of each year. Second Semester and
Summer School funds are awarded only if funds
are remaining after the fall awards have been
made.
After you have completed your application, mail
it to the address below. The Scholarship
Selection Committee will review your application
and you will be notified regarding the approval
or disapproval of your application. Incomplete
applications will not be funded until all
required documents are completed and submitted
to them for review. The Scholarship Committee
serves on a volunteer basis. Applications
received after the initial award period in
September will be reviewed and considered as
applications accumulate (usually on a monthly
basis).
If approved, a check will be issued directly to
you. The average award amount is $300 per term.
Please indicate where you want your check mailed
on the first page of the application, "address
while at school" (if known), otherwise the check
will be mailed to your permanent address or to
your school's Financial Aid Office. Notify the
Scholarship Program immediately by mail (or
e-mail) of any change of address to ensure
timely receipt of checks and/or correspondence
from the Scholarship Program.
The Scholarship Committee, upon recommendation
from the ANB Grand Camp, encourages you to
become a member of the Alaska Native Brotherhood
or the Alaska Native Sisterhood. Funding
priority is given to ANB/ANS Members.
Once you have completed your post-secondary
education or training, it is hoped that you will
strongly consider contributing to the Grand Camp
Scholarship Fund so that future students may
benefit from this program.
Mail your complete scholarship application packet
to ANB Grand Camp Scholarship Program, PO Box
32457, Juneau, AK 99803-2457.
