American Indian Services, a non-profit organization based in the US, has recently
updated their community output to include Native American college funds and
scholarships, offering excellent supportive resources and striving towards educational
equality.
The college scholarships offer qualifying undergraduates enrollment support and
financial security during their course, in addition sponsoring a range of other
educational services, including customized STEM summer schools, literacy
projects, and mentoring programs for school-aged children.
Applicants of the newly released AIS college fund must have
enrolled or be about to enroll as an undergraduate in a
university, college, or technical school to complete their first
bachelor’s degree.
Eligible applicants must be at least one quarter (1/4)
Native American, as part of a federally recognized
tribe, or as the immediate descendent of an enrolled
member. A minimum cumulative GPA of 2.25 must
be maintained after the first semester of the
academic course.
Comprehensive information about required
documents and FAQs on the recently
launched scholarship can be found on the AIS
site, in addition to articles on how AIS
implements positive change and upholds

In addition to their endeavors to foster educational equality, AIS has a number of charitable
operations, implementing positive change on reservations and in the community. AIS was created to

youths are three times as likely to get a college
degree.
