The MG James Ursano Scholarship Program for Dependent Children helps Army families pay for undergraduate college expenses for their dependent children. This need-based scholarship provides financial support for children of active duty or retired Army soldiers pursuing their first undergraduate degree at accredited colleges or universities. Funds may be used toward tuition, fees, books, supplies, and room and board. Award amounts vary each year based on the applicant's Expected Family Contribution (EFC) as determined by the FAFSA, the total approved budget, and the number of complete applications received by Army Emergency Relief (AER). Applicants must be under age 24, unmarried throughout the academic year, and maintain a cumulative 2.0 GPA while pursuing their undergraduate degree.
