College Students, Apply Now! The T3 Fund Application is Now Available.

 

AISES recognizes that students are still facing a lack of jobs and opportunities, closed campuses, virtual classes, and the constant stress of having to combat this pandemic in tribal communities and within their households.

 

We value our commitment to our students and their academic journeys during these trying times. AISES is proud to announce that the Together Towards Tomorrow (T3) Fund will be awarding additional T3 Scholarships for students. The T3 Scholarship Applications will open on September 25, 2020.

 

Thanks to a $50,000 contribution from the Johnson Scholarship Foundation, AISES is able to administer one-time $500 scholarships to address the pressing needs of Native American/Indigenous students who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Johnson Scholarship Foundation is generously providing these funds to provide immediate relief to some of the most underserved Native communities in the United States. AISES is very appreciative of this recent contribution.

 

Native American/Indigenous undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in an accredited U.S. college or university who have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic are eligible to receive a one-time scholarship of $500. If you have already received a T3 Scholarship, you are not eligible to receive the scholarship again. Scholarships will be provided based upon available funding. To expedite funding, all funds will be paid directly to students.
