FEEA Scholarships
Scholarship Sponsored by Federal Employee Education and Assistance Fund
Intro
Since 1986, FEEA has awarded more than 11,000 merit-based scholarships to members of the federal community — including federal employees, their spouses, children, and grandchildren.
Who may apply
- Federal employees (permanent, full- or part-time civilian or postal) who have worked for the federal government for more than three years, and their spouses.
- Children, stepchildren, and other legal dependents of those permanent federal civilian or postal employees.
- In addition, FEEA partners with certain associations and unions that fund targeted scholarship programs for their own employees, the employees’ spouses, children, grandchildren, or for retirees’ descendants (children, grandchildren, or great-grandchildren).
Application process
FEEA and its co-sponsors use a single, unified application form for all FEEA and co-sponsored scholarship opportunities. For complete instructions and details, download the scholarship application instructions (PDF).
Required application materials
- Complete high school or college transcripts (unofficial transcripts are acceptable)
- A personal essay
- A summary of community service, honors/awards, and extracurricular activities
- A copy of the sponsoring federal employee’s current SF-50 (this document is not required for retired NARFE members)
