FORD SCHOLARSHIP FOR PROSPECTIVE AND CURRENTLY ENROLLED HHC STUDENTS

The Ford Endowed Scholarships are awarded on a competitive basis by the Indiana University Bloomington HHC and are renewable.

These endowed funds support undergraduate scholarships.

Preference is given to minorities and women. Special consideration will be given to Ford employees, their spouses or children who apply for financial assistance.
