Nate Anderson Scholarship Incentive Fund

The Nate Anderson Scholarship Incentive Fund provides financial assistance to minority students at Eastern Illinois University who demonstrate academic improvement and financial need. The scholarship is designed to support students transitioning from their freshman to sophomore year, though it is available to any minority student who has completed at least 24 credit hours at EIU. Recipients must maintain a minimum 2.5 GPA and be enrolled full-time. The award particularly seeks well-rounded and academically talented students who have shown significant improvement in their GPA from the prior semester. This scholarship is renewable, allowing recipients to apply again in subsequent years if they continue to meet the eligibility criteria. The award is payable in the Fall semester and the amount varies.
