American Indian Scholarship

The recently established prestigious American Indian Scholarship is designed to encourage and support Native American students interested in pursuing STEM degrees and continuing their education beyond their current enrollment in community college. To assist students in their goals, the North Dakota Space Grant Consortium offers five scholarships, each worth $2500, to Native American students at five tribal colleges in North Dakota: United Tribes Technical College, Sitting Bull Community College, Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College, Turtle Mountain Community College, and Cankdeska Cikana Community College.

Eligible students must commit to:

1. attending UND or NDSU after their graduation
2. pursuing a STEM degree at UND/NDSU

In addition to one letter of recommendation from a faculty member, students must also fill out and turn in the application form to the Office of Financial Aid at their respective institution.
