EAGLE SCHOLARSHIPS
You have no doubt been told many times that the benefits of participation in Scouting last a lifetime. The same holds true for a college education.
National Eagle Scout Association Scholarships
The National Eagle Scout Association (NESA) offers several scholarships that may interest you. Visit the NESA website for deadlines and application materials.
NESA Outstanding Eagle Scout Award
The NESA Outstanding Eagle Scout Award (NOESA) is a prestigious recognition granted by the local council’s NESA committee to Eagle Scouts who have demonstrated outstanding achievement at the local, state, or regional level. Unlike the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award, which is a national award, the NOESA recognizes Eagle Scouts whose efforts have made a positive impact closer to home. Click here for more information.
American Legion Eagle Scout of the Year Scholarships
The American Legion honors the Eagle Scout of the Year at the national convention with a $10,000 scholarship. The three runners-up get $2,500. Further information is available from department adjutants or the Americanism Division. Visit the American Legion website.
