Shelton National Leadership Scholarship

The Samuel Fletcher Tapman Scholarship is a scholarship program administered by the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) organization. While I don’t have access to the most up-to-date eligibility criteria for this specific scholarship, here is some general information about the scholarship:

• Disability Status: The scholarship is typically available to students who are the children of veterans who have a service-connected disability or are themselves disabled veterans.
• Academic Achievement: Many scholarships consider academic performance as a criterion. Applicants may need to meet a certain GPA requirement or demonstrate academic excellence.
• Financial Need: The scholarship may consider financial need as a factor in the selection process. Applicants may be required to provide information about their financial situation, including submitting the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or similar financial aid forms.
• Educational Pursuit: The scholarship is usually intended for students who are pursuing undergraduate or graduate studies at an accredited college or university.
• Application Materials: Applicants may be required to submit various documents, including a scholarship application form, transcripts, letters of recommendation, a personal statement, and possibly a copy of the veteran’s disability rating or documentation of their own disability.
