Educational Scholarships

The Educational Scholarship was established to enhance opportunities for persons born with Spina Bifida to achieve their full potential through higher education. SBSTL Scholarships can make it possible for the student to choose educational pursuits that may otherwise be outside of financial reach. Scholarship grants are for post-secondary education, at 2-year or 4-year colleges or certified vocational schools. You MUST submit a new application for each monetary amount requested.

Applications must be submitted prior to the start of classes. You will be notified of your acceptance. Scholarships up to $1,000 each calendar year are limited and are offered on a first come, first served basis, annually.
