Illinois Sheriffs' Association College Scholarship

The Illinois Sheriffs' Association gives out more than 100 scholarships each year to Illinois residents heading into full-time college study, including graduating high school seniors. Awards range from $500 to $1,000. You apply through the sheriff's office in your county of permanent residence rather than the state office, and the money is paid straight to your school for tuition, fees, and books.
