Section 312.30  Description

The DCFS Scholarship Program provides a maximum of 48 scholarships each year, four of which are awarded to children of veterans.  Scholarship recipients receive up to four consecutive years of supplemental services and maintenance payments (see Section 312.90) that will include annual tuition and fee waivers if the student attends an Illinois State community college or university.  Scholarships do not cover room, board, or dormitory fees.  Students may attend other colleges or universities, if scholarships are awarded them, and receive the same maintenance benefits as those students attending State-supported community colleges or universities.
