    Current and retired members of unions affiliated with the AFL-CIO, 
    participating in any Union Plus program, their spouses and their 
    dependent children (as defined by IRS regulations) can apply for a 
    Union Plus Scholarship.  Participating union members from Puerto Rico, 
    Canada, Guam and Virgin Islands and U.S. citizens are eligible.  
    Members do not have to purchase any Union Plus program product or 
    participate in any Union Plus programs to apply for the scholarship, 
    and scholarship awards are not based upon participation in a Union Plus 
    program.

    Scholarship award amounts range from $500 to $4,000.  This is a one-
    time cash award for study beginning in the fall of the same year.

    The individual must be accepted into a United States accredited college 
    or university, community college or recognized technical or trade 
    school at the time the award is issued.  Undergraduate and Graduate 
    students are eligible.

    Applicants for scholarships are evaluated according to academic
    ability, social awareness, financial need and knowledge of labor and
    union issues, as it relates to the applicant and/or their family.
    Deadline:  January 31
