SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM

The Navy Supply Corps Foundation will begin accepting applications for Scholarships beginning on December 1, 2026 for the 2027-2028 Academic Year! Please click on the Instructions & Application tab and review the updated instructions and process as there are significant changes from past years.

The Foundation’s Scholarship Program, which was the basis for the Foundation’s formation three decades ago, was established to provide children of qualifying Supply Corps personnel financial assistance to pursue a college education. Foundation scholarships are for high school seniors and college undergraduate students, students attending accredited community college/technical school, and spouses.

Today, any family member (child, grandchild or spouse) of a qualifying Supply Corps officer and child or spouse of a supply enlisted member (active duty, reservist, or retired) is eligible for consideration to receive financial assistance for undergraduate studies at an accredited two or four-year post-secondary school institution.

In response to the Global War on Terror after September 11, 2001, the NSCF established memorial scholarships in the amount of $10,000.00 for each of the minor children of a Supply Corps Officer who dies while on Active Duty or serving in the Active Reserve. In 2022, the amount for memorial scholarships was increased to $20,000. The program applies to Active Duty Supply Corps Officers and Reserve Supply Corps Officer in the Active Reserve.

The scholarship application consists of three primary components: personal information, education background, extracurricular activities, work experience, personal statement, and two short essay questions. All identifying information is redacted, and the scholarship board looks at scholastic ability, scholastic achievement, leadership, character, notable achievements, and the two essays when evaluating scholarship applicaitons.

The Foundation Scholarship Committee convenes a Scholarship Board consisting of one person each from the Active Duty, Reserve, Retired, Senior Enlisted, and spouse communities. The Scholarship Board individually reviews and critiques each application and then meets as a virtual Scholarship Board to collectively select the best candidates. Applicants are considered for awards on the basis of character, leadership, academic performance, and essays.

The Scholarship Program has steadily grown over the past three decades, due in large part to the generosity and efforts of regional chapters, spouses’ clubs, and individual Supply Corps officers. In 1971, six one-year $250 scholarships were offered; today, the Foundation’s goal is to award over $250,000 in scholarships each year. Since 1971, the Foundation has awarded 2,843 scholarships valued in excess of $7,218,000.

Memorial Scholarship Fund

The Memorial Scholarship Fund

“Taking Care of Our Own” is a significant part of the mission of the Navy Supply Corps Foundation. One of the ways we do this for each other is through our Memorial Scholarship fund, which provides college tuition assistance for the minor children of Supply Corps officers who die while on Active Duty or serving in the Active Reserve.

The Foundation contributes $20,000.00 to establish a scholarship fund for each of the minor children of a Supply Corps Officer who dies while on Active Duty or serving in the Active Reserve. The scholarship fund is maintained as a restricted account within our corpus and is available for disbursement when the child is ready to attend college. The fund is also set up so that individuals can contribute to the fund.

The program applies to Active Duty Supply Corps Officers and Reserve Supply Corps Officers in the Active Reserve.

If you wish to contribute to one of the Navy Supply Corps Foundation Memorial Scholarship funds, please donate online and annotate the name of the child or Memorial Scholarships in the designation box.
