2. Reminder to the Student. a. If you are look-ing for a scholarship of any kind, it is ex-tremely important that you start eaTly, sincepractically all scholarships carry deadlines forreceipt of the application. The beginning ofyour junior year in high school is normally theaccepted time to investigate the possibility ofscholarships and other forms of financial as-sistance. High school guidance counselors orprincipals should be consulted on this matter.They are able to assist you in taking advantageof educational opportunities, especially schol-arships offered on a "one-time" basis.

b. If you desire to attend a particular collegeuniversity, it is recommended that you write

to the Director of Admissions and obtr.in a ca-talog. At the same time indicate y our need forobtaining a scholarship or other financial aid.In most instances you will find that the cata-logs list the number of scholarships being of-fered, their value, and the requisites to be met.

c. Directors of Financial Aid at many col-leges and universities have advised that astudent should not limit himself to applicationfor one specific scholarship. If you desire, de-note an interest in a scholarship of your choicebut also indicate a willingness to accept any Z-nancial aid which is available. In this way thedirector may be able to program a student forother means of financial aid which are admin-istered by the institution,

SECTION III

EDUCATIONAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMFOR ARMY DEPENDENTS

5. General. The Department of the Army, inagreement with the National Merit Scholar-ship Corporation (NMSC), offers U.S. Armyiderit and U.S. Army Special Scholarships toeligible, college-bound, minor dependents ofmilitary personnel on active duty in the Army.These scholarships are supported by ArmyCentral Welfare Funds and provide financialassistance in the form of a stipend for 4 yearsof undergraduate study leading to a bachelor'sdegree at any accredited cone& or universityin the United States. The stipend for each U.S.Army Merit and Special Scholarship rangesfrom $100 to $1,500 per year for 4 years, de-pending upon the individual student's financialneed as determined by NMSC.

6. Procedure for Obtaining Scholarships. a.National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test.Dependent students who wish to be consideredfor these scholarships must take the NationalMerit Scholarship Qualifying Test (NMSQT)in the calendar year prior to completion ofhigh school and entry into college. TheNMSQT is normally administered in highschools in February ofeach year.

(1) How to t& NMSQT. Studentsshould consult their -Principals or guidancecounselors early in their junior year of highschool to confirm the availability of theNMSQT in their school.

(a) If the school in which the studentis enrolled does not administer the NMSQT,arrangements for alternate testing should bemade with the National Merit ScholarshipCorporation, 990 Grove Street, Evanston, Illi-nois 60201, through appropriate high schoolofficials api early as possible before the sched-uled testi g date but not later than 10 Januaryof the stiident's junior year.

10

(b) Occasionally illness or some otheremergency may prevent a student from takingthe NMSQT on the designated date. Since ahigh school can administer the NMSQT ononly one of two scheduled dates, alternate pro-cedures for entering the Merit Program will befurnished by NMSC when requested in writingby a school official or the student. NMSC mustreceive such requests as early as possible butnot later than 6 June of the student's junioryear in high school.

(2) Action after taking Test. Since takingthe NMSQT constitutes a request for consider-ation, no othqr action is necessary until thestudent receives notification from NMSC thathe has been selected as a Semifinalist or aCommended student. At the time the student isnotified by NMSC of his selection he must takethe following steps :

a) Semifinalists.1. Students advised by NMSC that

they have been designated as Semifinalists inthe NMSC Merit Program must comply withsubsequent instructions sent to them by NMSC.Upon receipt of information from the student,NMSC will provide the Department of theArmy with a listing of dependent students rec-ommended for consideration for U.S. ArmyMerit Scholarships. Therefore, a formal appli-cation to the Department of the Army for aU.S. Army Merit Scholarship is unnecessary.

2. Semifinalists should insure thatscores achieved on the Scholastic Aptitude Test(SAT) are forwarded to NM& since NMSCuses the results of the SAT to verify scores at-tained on the NMSQT in advancing Semifinal-ists to Finalist status.

8. Eligible dependent students who"are subsequently advanced to Finalist status

AGO 20098A

will be considered automatically for a U.S.Army Merit Scholarship.

(b) Commended students.1. Students advised by NMSC that

they have been designated as Commended stu-dents in the NMSC Merit Program may applyfor a U.S. Army Special Scholarship. Theawarding of U.S. Army Special Scholarships isnot automatic.

SECTION IV

EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES INTHE MILITARY SERVICE

9. General. Persons who desire employmentwhile attaining or continuing their educationare wise to consider entering the military serv-ice. In the military service it is possible to"learn while you earn." There are many mili-tary programs under which educational oppor-tunities prevail. These are briefly discussedherein. Additional information may be ob-tained at the nearest United States Army Re-cruiting Office.

10. Military Schooling. The Department of theArmy service school system provides trainingin various specialist and technical tradeswhich are necessary to the overall efficiency ofthe Army. In most cases the demand for thesespecialist or technical trades is as great in ci-vilian industry as the military service. Al-though the successful completion of militaryservice school does not confer credits toward acollege degree, many institutions of higherlearning recognize the educational value of thistype schooling and will allow a certain numberof credit hours, depending on nature of course,toward a degree. Military personnel are se-lected to attend Army Service schools on a"best qualified" basis. Full pay and allowancescontinue while in attendance.

11. Off-Duty Studies. a. The Army maintainsEducation Centers at installations having atroop strength of 750 or more. Smaller instal-lations are satellited for education servicesupon a larger installation. Professional educa-tors are available at these Centers to provideprofessional guidance and continuity in the ed-ucation program. The following services areavailable to all Army personnel in or throughArmy Education Centers :

12

(1) Correspondence courses of the UnitedStates Armed Forces Institute and those ofparticipating civilian colleges and universitiesunder contract with the Department of De-fense.

(2) Group-study classes taught by mili-tary and civilian instructors employed by theArmy.

(3) Classes made available either on oroff the military installation by accredited highschools and colleges.

(4) Achievement tests, college level exam-ination program-general examinations, andUSAFI subject standardized tests.

(5) Educational and vocational advise-ment.

b. The Army pays a po tion of tuitioncharges for courses taken at accredited highschools, colleges, and universities. When at-tending a civilian institution either on or offthe military installation, specific credit hoursare awarded by the institution attended. Underthe Army's off-duty educational program, serv-ice personnel frequently earn sufficient creditsfor baccalaureate degree over an extended pe-riod of time at a very small cost and whileearning regular pay and allowances.

12. Training of Military Personnel at CivilianInstitutions. Selected officers and enlisted menare nominated each year for education andtraining at colleges, universities, and in-dustrial corporations. Selection is based on re-quirements of the Armed Forces and the indi-vidual's academic and military capabilities.

a. Officer Civil Schooling Program. This pro-gram is conducted for commissioned officers inthe Regular Army or Reserve officers on anindefinite period of active duty.

AGO 20098A

A few officers are permitted to con-tinue their studies for a doctorate degree.Officers attending graduate schools are full-time students and receive full pay ahd allow-ances. The Army pays all tuition and reim-burses the student for most of his expenses forbooks, supplies, and services. After graduation,the student officer is assigned to a positionwhich requires his special education and train-ing. Since 1946 approximately 7,000 officershave received graduate degrees through thisprogram.

c. Enlisted Civil Schooling Program.(1) In March 1958 the Army announced a

program to provide for the advanced trainingof enlisted personnel of the type offered in ci-vilian institutions of higher learning to meetanticipated Army requirements and to providea means of attracting and retaining qualifiedindivivals in the military service on a careerbasis.

40

their educational costs while attending schoolsranging from vocational or technical to degreegranting institutions.

b. These loans are insured by the FederalGovernment and in the event of a student'sfailure to pay, the lender will be reimbursed100 percent of the unpaid principal balance ofthe loan. In the case of the student's death ortotal and permanent disability, the FederalGovernment will pay the entire amount owedby the student.

c. During the student's in-school period,prior to commencement of repayment, and dur-ing periods of authorized deferment, the Fed-eral Government pays the total interest up tothe maximum 7 percent per annum for thosestudents whose adjusted family income is lessthan $15,000 per year. During the loan repay-ment period, the student will assume the totalinterest charges. Students who do not qualifyfor Federal interest benefits, that is, studentswhose adjusted family income is more than$15,000, may borrow, but they must pay all ofthe interest on the loan.

cl. Regardless of family income, any studentdesiring to pursue a post secondary educationis eligible to apply for a loan provided he orshe

f. The Office of Education charges the lender(bank) an insurance premium of one-fourth ofone percent per year on the amount disbursedfor the term of the in-school note. This is com-puted from the month following disbursementto anticipated month of graduation plus 12months. The premium is charged only once forthe term of each loan. There will be no refunds

or adjustments. The lender. at his option, maycollect the premium from the borrower or de-duct it from the proceeds of the loan.

g. Loan application procedure : The studentobtains a Federal application (OE 1154) froma lender or. school. After completing Part A,the rstudent submits the application to theschool which verifies enrollment, completesPart B, and returns the form to the student.After completing Part C, the application issubmitted to a lender for approval.

h. Repayment: Repayment of the loan isover a period of not less than 5 nor more than10 years beginning not earlier than 9 nor morethan 12 months following the date on, which astudent ceases to be enrolled on at least a half-time basis at an eligible institution. However,as the Act requires the student to repay at a

rate not less than $360 a year, the actual re-parment terms will depend on th student'stotal indebtedness. Principal payments neednot be made by the borrower while he is amember of the Armed Forces, a Volunteer inthe Peace Corps or VISTA, or for any periodduring which he is pursuing a full-time courseof study at an eligible school. The borrower isencouraged to make at least partial paymentsduring such periods of deferment in order toreduce the principal amount of the loan.
