Children of Commissioned Officers Scholarship - First-Time Applicants
Description
Scholarship for Children of Active-Duty, Retired or Active Reserve Coast Guard Commissioned Officers
This application is intended for first-time applicants only.
Support for education is a cornerstone of our commitment to the men and women of the U.S. Coast Guard and their families.
If you are the child of an active duty or retired Coast Guard commissioned officer you are eligible to apply.
When we began the scholarship program in 1990, we focused on one goal — providing Coast Guard families the opportunity to send their children to college. Since that time, the cost of higher education has sky-rocketed, making our original aspiration even more relevant for today’s Coast Guard families.
