American Board of Funeral Service Education Scholarship

National Scholarship Program The National Scholarship Program of the American Board of Funeral Service Education was established to provide financial awards to students enrolled in funeral service or mortuary science programs to assist them in obtaining their professional education. Established during the 1960’s the program has awarded scholarships to hundreds of students.

Scholarships are generally from $500 - $2,500 for an academic year and are applied directly to the student’s tuition charges after certification of enrollment is received from the college involved. Students may apply once per calendar year for consideration.

Selection of scholarship recipients is competitive. Each year a larger number of students apply than there are awards available. Awards are made by the Scholarship Committee of the American Board of Funeral Service Education. The Committee meets twice each year, in April and October.

Application Deadlines: The deadlines for all materials to be postmarked are: September 1st, 2013 or March 1st, 2014
