Scholarships available for future teachers

The Next Generation Hoosier Educators Scholarship program, which the Indiana General Assembly created in 2016, is now accepting applications from high-achieving high school and college students.

This scholarship provides a $7,500 scholarship every year for four academic years (up to $30,000 total).

To qualify for the scholarship, students must have either graduated in the top 20% of their high school class or earned a score in the top 20th percentile on the SAT (1190) or ACT (26).

To continue earning the scholarship while in college, students must file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each year, earn a 3.0 cumulative GPA and complete at least 30 credit hours per year.

There are only 200 scholarships available. Applicants have until Jan. 30, 2022, to submit their application.

All applicants should hear from the commission on the status of their application by March 28, 2022.
