New Scholarship Program for Undergraduate and Graduate Students

Investing in the Future IC Workforce Scholarships support talented, mission-driven students pursuing studies related to a career in the United States intelligence and national security communities. This new scholarship program will offer four awards of up to $5,000 each to eligible undergraduate and graduate students. Two of these scholarships are specifically for students from underrepresented minority groups while the other two are open to all eligible students who meet the award requirements. 

Each scholarship applicant will be vetted by a combination of representatives of the INSF Board of Trustees, the INSF President and INSA Executive Vice President. Awards will be paid directly to the respective college/university to be applied to tuition fees. Application period has ended. Stay tuned for details on 2022 award deadlines.
