Assyrian Foundation of America Scholarship

The Assyrian Foundation of America gives scholarships of $1,000 to $5,000 per year to students who self-identify as Assyrian, with priority for those from under-resourced regions or intending to study Assyrian history, language, art, or culture. Recipients must maintain a 3.0+ GPA, and first-time applicants need a transcript, photo ID, and a personal statement. Each year, recipients give back by presenting to the AFA board or writing for Nineveh magazine or AFA's social media. No membership fee is required to apply.
