Dive into the opportunities offered by BVA’s Kathern F. Gruber Scholarships – a chance like no other for spouses, dependent children, and grandchildren of blind and low vision veterans seeking support for their higher education tuition. Five awards valued at $2,000 each are available for the 2024-25 academic year. The scholarships are a valuable resource for your family’s educational aspirations. 

The application process is straightforward with applicants evaluated on merit by a select committee. Although the Gruber scholarships for veterans’ dependents are awarded for one year, the even better news is that students can re-apply and receive the award up to four times. This allowance can offer a steady support system throughout an educational journey. 

Noteworthy is that the recipient’s blind or low vision veteran family member is not required to be a BVA member for the spouse, child, or grandchild to be eligible for a scholarship. It is an inclusive opportunity to ease the financial burden of higher education. 

Explore the possibilities, apply, and let the BVA’s Kathern F. Gruber scholarships be a stepping stone toward achieving your educational goals! Additional resource information and application materials, due April 30, can be submitted online or via the U.S. Postal Service. The resources are available here.
