Scholarship and Grant Information for Educators

Scholarship programs have been established in several SREB states to encourage the preparation of teachers in critical shortage areas in the public schools. Typically, there are GPA requirements that students must maintain, and future teachers must agree to teach in a shortage area in the public school system for a given number of years.

If you are a current teacher, many states offer grants for your professional development to seek a graduate degree. You may also search for scholarships on the Electronic Campus.
