Direct Education Scholarship

 

The Pueblo of Laguna, through the Laguna Department of Education, supports the pursuit of higher education for its tribal members.  Acceptance of scholarship funds implies a focused commitment to college studies and achieving the goal of earning a college degree.


Partners For Success awards scholarships to eligible Laguna students who are pursuing a degree on a full-time basis.  The cost of a college education continues to escalate at a pace that exceeds current resources.  Thus, the scholarship awards supplement federal contributions.  It is unlikely the awards will be sufficient to pay the total college costs.
