POSTED ON Mar 07, 2025
 

The American Indian Education Fund (AIEF) scholarship application for the 2025-2026 academic year will close soon, with the final submission deadline of April 4, 2025. Applicants must be enrolled in an accredited two- or four-year college or university in the United States.

Undergraduates must be full-time students, while graduate students can enroll for a maximum of six credit hours.

Past scholarship recipients have shared how the AIEF scholarship alleviated their financial burdens, allowing them to concentrate on their studies and achieve their academic and career goals.

One recipient emphasized that scholarships enrich life experiences beyond obtaining a degree.

This week, it was announced that California State University, Sacramento, is making history by creating the Sacramento State Native American College.

This groundbreaking initiative aims to advance Native-based education and create academic and professional growth opportunities.

Set to launch in Fall 2025, the college will offer a culturally rooted educational experience, empowering Native students to lead with tribal values and engage with their communities.

Dr. Annette Reed, an enrolled member of the Tolowa Dee-ni Nation, will serve as the college’s first dean. The college will focus on fostering leadership, academic excellence, and deep connections to Native cultures.

This is a pivotal moment for Native American students to thrive in higher education while honoring their traditions.
