Members of the 70th Infantry Division Assn have established the 70th IDA Scholarship Fund in support of all members of the Association. The scholarships are designed to honor those who have served under the colors of the 70th Infantry Division, especially those who have lost their lives during any U.S. military operation. Descendants and spouses of those who are currently serving or who have served under the colors of the 70th Infantry Division are eligible and must be under 25 years of age.

Four awards of $500.00 each, which can be used for room and board, graduate and undergraduate tuition, library fees, textbooks or other instructional material, are available. Scholarship winners must maintain a "B" average and carry the prescribed number of credit hours at their school, but may earn up to three additional awards.  To reapply all that is required is a biography of the applicants last year’s achievements and highlights along with a copy for their college transcripts.

To receive an application packet with full details, contact CSM (Ret) Bill Scott, at 394 N W 170th Drive, Beaverton, Oregon 97006. Completed applications must be submitted by August 30 for the following school year. A committee of 70th Infantry Division Association members will select recipients prior to the start of the fall term.
