About Scholarship
The Rosewood Family Scholarship Program was created to provide student financial assistance for eligible students who prove they are direct descendants of Rosewood families affected by the historical incidents of January 1923. Applicants are required to supply the descendant information on the Florida Financial Aid Application for verification. Acceptable genealogical documentation linking the applicant to the direct Rosewood family member affected by the historical incidents of 1923 includes, but is not limited to birth certificate; marriage license; death certificate; church record; and obituary. Applicants must also provide a copy of their birth certificate, photo identification, and social security card. The student must not owe a repayment or be in default under any state or federal grant, loan or scholarship program unless satisfactory arrangements to repay have been made; and not have previously received a baccalaureate degree. The student must enroll at an eligible participating public postsecondary institution in a program of study leading to an undergraduate degree, a certificate, or a diploma. Eligible students must attend a state university, Florida College System institution, or public postsecondary technical center in Florida. Among eligible applicants who are Rosewood descendants, first priority will be given to renewal applicants. Second priority for awards will be given to initial applicants. Third priority for awards will be given to reinstatement applicants. Fourth priority for awards will be given to restoration applicants. An undergraduate student is eligible to receive an award for a maximum of eight semesters (12 quarters) or until receipt of a baccalaureate degree, whichever occurs first. An undergraduate student enrolled in a five-year undergraduate degree program is eligible to receive financial aid for a maximum of 10 semesters or 15 quarters. Unused terms may not be used for further course funding after a student earns a baccalaureate degree. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Florida State Department of Education for more information.
