Scholarships
FAR administers scholarships on behalf of Amateur Radio Clubs, organizations, and private individuals. The Foundation administers these scholarships without cost to the applicants or sponsors.
Applications
Scholarships are open to all licensed amateurs who are pursuing a full-time course of studies beyond high school and are enrolled in or have been accepted for enrollment at an accredited university, college or technical school.
Scholarship applications for the 2008-2009 academic year are currently available. The cut-off date for applications is May 1, 2008.

Further Information
In recent years, a number of articles have been written that explain the history and organization of the FAR scholarship program, as well as questions and answers about the program. We hope these resources will help build a fuller picture of the program and its administration.
