The FBIAA Memorial College Fund supports the children and spouses of FBI Special Agents who died while actively employed, or within one year of retiring, from line-of-duty causes, a 9/11-certified illness, an accident, illness, or natural causes. It currently covers about 75% of tuition and expenses — including room, board, books, and a one-time laptop allowance — for an Associate's, Bachelor's, or trade certification at any college worldwide. Recipients must stay full-time and in good standing to continue receiving support.
