    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 the Virgin Islands 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 
    award is granted.

    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 currently enrolled in college 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
