NGAA/EAANG Scholarship Program
The National Guard Association of Arkansas (NGAA) maintains a trust fund from its operations to award annual scholarships to members of NGAA and the Enlisted Association of the Arkansas National Guard (EAANG) and their dependents. This trust fund is managed by both NGAA and EAANG.
The scholarships may be used for any and all college expenses. The associations review applications and award scholarships based on guidelines provided by the board of directors of each organization. Prerequisites to apply for the scholarships are:

- Applicant or his/her sponsor must be covered under the group life insurance program administered by NGAA (unless dependent of deceased member).
- Dependents of deceased members of NGAA/EAANG may apply if the deceased member had coverage under the NGAA group life insurance program.
- Members of the Arkansas National Guard applying for a scholarship must be their own sponsor and meet all the eligibility requirements listed above.
These scholarships apply to full time or part time enrollment at in-state or out-of-state colleges, four-year colleges, or vocational training.
