ASU Veterans Education Fund

The ASU Veterans Education Fund is supported through the generous gifts of donors who are devoted to the success of veterans nationally and at Arizona State University.

In spring of 2014, Cadet Meghan Marks of ASU's Army ROTC organized a Warrior Leadership Challenge for local Junior ROTC units to raise money for the fund. Meghan helped raise over $4,200 toward Veterans Education Fund scholarships. To make a donation to this fund, please see more at Support the Center.

Scholarship awards are based on a student’s financial need, level of effort and the potential to complete his or her program of study. Awards are good for only one semester, but awardees may reapply each semester.

Scholarship awards: A maximum of $1,500.00 per student

Number of awards: A minimum of five scholarships will be awarded per semester

Scholarships will only be awarded for the fall and spring semesters.
