Wells Fargo Veterans Scholarship Program

Description

Wells Fargo is strongly invested in supporting our nation's veterans, including a commitment to assist them in completing postsecondary education programs to help them return to, and succeed in, a competitive job market. The Wells Fargo Veterans Scholarship Program provides scholarships to fill unmet financial need of veterans after military benefits and other grants and scholarships have been packaged by their school. Applicants must have served in the United States military, this includes the Reserves and National Guard. They must be honorably-discharged veterans who have received a Certificate of Eligibility from the Department of Veterans Affairs or DD214 or another document of service stating "Honorable Discharged" by the program application deadline date. A spouse or widowed person of disabled veterans meeting the above criteria may also apply. Applicants may be high school or GED graduates, current undergraduate or graduate level one students enrolled in undergraduate (first Associates or Bachelor's) or graduate (first Master's degree) study at an accredited college, university, or vocational-technical school for the entire upcoming academic year. Doctorate study is not eligible. Applicants must use any military education benefits for which they are eligible in the upcoming academic year. Recipients are selected on the basis of academic performance, demonstrated leadership and participation in school and community activities, work experience, and two essays. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
