National Service Scholarship Program
Rutgers School of Public Health honors those who have provided service to the
nation by offering a scholarship program for students who have completed a U.S.
federal service program, such as AmeriCorps, Peace Corps, United States Public
Health Service, or a branch of the uniformed services.
The
partial tuition scholarship is open to anyone who has completed their term of
national service through a U.S. federal program, is accepted into a master's or
doctoral program at the Rutgers School of Public Health as a matriculated
student, and enrolls in at least 6 credits per semester
for the first two years.
To be
considered for a National Service Scholarship, candidates must submit 1) a
completed Rutgers School of Public Health application; 2) a letter noting they
wish to be considered for a National Service Scholarship; and 3) a letter
or proof of completion from the agency where your service was performed
documenting completion of your national service.
The National Service Scholarship is only available to applicants when they apply for admission to the School of Public Health. The scholarship is based
upon the availability of funds and is nonrenewable.
