(Indianapolis, Ind.) – Scholarships are available for aspiring Indiana teachers.

The Indiana Commission for Higher Education announced Thursday that applications are being accepted for the next round of Next Generation Hoosier Education Scholarships.

To qualify, students must either graduate in the highest 20 percent of their high school class or earn a score in the top 20th percentile on the SAT or ACT. To continue earning the scholarship in college, students must maintain a 3.0 GPA and complete at least 30 credit hours per year.

“Hoosier students deserve motivated, quality teachers, and this scholarship is designed to attract just that,” said Indiana Commissioner for Higher Education Teresa Lubbers. “We continue to be encouraged by the commitment of these future educators and look forward to the positive impact they’ll have on their students.”

Entering its fourth year, the Next Generation Hoosier Education Scholarships have been awarded to 200 students across the state.
