NAACP Scholarships: Be the First to Know When the Application Process Opens!
Each
year the NAACP, through generous donations, is able to provide
scholarships to outstanding students. It is the duty of our
dedicated Scholarship Committee to determine the most

does not provide financial aid to individuals, only
scholarships through this process.
The application process for the 2011-2012 school year will
begin in late Fall 2010. You can view information about each

Scholarship Information and Requirements.
However, as in years past, the
process will be entirely online through our partnership with
UNCF.
