American Legion Auxiliary Junior members are the future of our organization. To reward those who retain their membership into adulthood, the American Legion Auxiliary offers the Member Loyalty Scholarship to current college students. Ten scholarships will be awarded to a current college student. Two scholarships will be awarded in each division of the American Legion Auxiliary. The scholarship is a grant; not a loan. Candidates for this award shall have been Junior members of the American Legion Auxiliary, held membership in the American Legion Auxiliary for the past three consecutive years and be a paid member for the current membership year. Applicants must continue their membership in the American Legion Auxiliary during the scholarship period. This scholarship is intended for the traditional college student with no interruption in education, who is at least in the first semester of college or technical school but has not yet attained a bachelor's degree. Applicants must provide two letters of recommendation. One must be from an educator or spiritual advisor who is familiar with the applicant's academic performance, extracurricular activities, and can describe their skills, leadership experience, and character. The second letter is from a person of the applicant's choosing attesting to the applicant's character in regard to conduct, citizenship, and leadership. Letters of recommendation from family members will not be accepted. Please have your reference include their contact information. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
