PHOENIX – Scholarships for Navajo college students are being offered by the Salt River Project and the Navajo Generating Station. The application deadline is April 30, said Salt River Project spokeswoman Regina Lane.
To be eligible, applicants must be members of the Navajo Nation, full-time students and at least a junior in college during the time the scholarship will be used.
The award may be used at any accredited college or university in or outside of Arizona.
Students must maintain a B average to maintain the scholarship. Priority will be given to students seeking degrees in math, engineering and environmental fields.
The NGS Scholarship Committee will make its selections based on field of study, academic excellence and achievement.
Award amounts will then be determined by the committee following an evaluation of the financial needs analysis of each applicant.
