Navy Wives Clubs of America Scholarship Foundation

The Navy Wives Clubs of America (NWCA) Scholarship Foundation awards up to 31 scholarships each year to the biological, adopted, or stepchild of an active-duty, retired-with-pay, or deceased enlisted (E1-E9) member of the Navy, Marine Corps, or Coast Guard who holds a valid military dependent ID card. Applicants need a 2.5 GPA, must demonstrate financial need, and must have graduated high school (or equivalent) or be about to. The foundation does not publish a fixed dollar amount for this fund (a separate, smaller NWCA member's fund pays $1,000-$1,500, but has different eligibility -- NWCA membership or spouse status -- and is not this fund). Applications and transcripts are submitted by mail or email, due March 31.
