College students with a passion for public service and helping others could be eligible for a scholarship from the Indiana Department of Homeland Security.
Scholarships are available to students who volunteer with public safety organizations in our state, like fire departments, law enforcement, emergency management or emergency medical services.
Eligible applicants must attend an accredited Indiana college or university, have a 2.8 or higher grade point average on a 4.0 scale and meet the volunteer requirement. Full-time students with at least 12 credit hours per semester are eligible for a $2,000 scholarship, and part-time students with at least six credit hours are eligible for $1,000.
