Dr. Aurelio M. Caccomo Family Foundation National Memorial Scholarship
This AMVETS scholarship was set up in memory of Dr. Aurelio M. Caccomo who was a immigrant to the US and dedicated his life as a physician in to the U.S. Army Reserves. Two $3,000 Veterans scholarships are awarded annually to only veterans/guardsmen/reservists, and not Veterans family members. It’s the only AMVETS scholarship that does not include family.

Eligibility requirements are: US citizen & Veteran, demonstration of financial need, no drug convictions, no defaulted federal student loans, must be enrolled or going to be accepted in an eligible program of study, and must have a GED to apply. A written essay of only 50-100 words is required on the question ‘how this scholarship will help me’. April 15th is the AMVETS scholarship application deadline date.
