National Military Intelligence Foundation (NMIF) 2020 Merit Scholarship Accepting Applications
The NMIF is pleased to announce its annual competition for scholarships to support students pursuing courses of study and formal degrees in intelligence studies and related disciplines.
Due to the rapidly emerging set of challenges posed by COVID-19 to all the universities and students, the National Military Intelligence Foundation has extended the scholarship application deadline to 30 June 2020. Please find attached the application students are to fill out and return to scholarships@nmif.org and myself, Natalie.anderson.nmif@gmail.com.
If able, please pass along this information to your students. As a former NMIF Merit Scholarship award winner of 2018, I can attest to just how much such an award means to these students. Therefore, I am attempting to get this application in front of as many students as I can so they can have the chance to be acknowledged for their hard work and dedication to intelligence studies and related disciplines.
The awards for this year’s scholarship will be dependent on the donations received throughout the year. In addition to providing a grant to academic institutions to be applied to the winning applicants’ tuition, each award will be accompanied by an invitation to attend the NMIF Awards Banquet to be held later this year 2020, pending a TBA postponed date due to COVID-19. I highly recommend all students, current IC professionals, industry professionals, university faculty, and staff attend this banquet because it is a really great event and rewarding experience for all.
Additional information regarding the NMIF Merit Scholarship and the NMIF Awards Banquet can be found on the NMIF website at http://nmif.org/ under the "Scholarships" tab.
To be eligible for consideration, the following criteria shall be applied:
- Applicants for the NMIF Merit Scholarship must be Juniors, Seniors or Graduate students at the time of application. For more detailed information on eligibility requirements, please see the attached application form and/or our website at http://nmif.org/ under the "Scholarships" tab.
- Applicants must be considered full-time students. For more detailed information on eligibility requirements, please see the attached application form and/or our website at http://nmif.org/ under the "Scholarships" tab.
