http://www.scad.edu/admission/financial/scholarships/educators/index.cfm

The Savannah College of Art and Design has a special scholarship opportunity for educators. Educators who are employed full-time at the time of application and who teach at the kindergarten through college level at a public or private institution recognized by the applicant's state department of education may be eligible to receive a scholarship/fellowship for half the amount of SCAD's tuition.

To be eligible, an educator must apply and be accepted to SCAD and provide proof of employment and good standing from his or her school administrator or human resources department. The scholarship/fellowship is renewable, provided that the recipient remains a full-time, degree-seeking student in the chosen program and maintains a 3.0 cumulative grade point average on a 4.0 scale. SCAD e-Learning students who cannot enroll full-time due to course limitations, may have the fellowship prorated for the highest number of classes in which the student is enrolled. Recipients are expected to assume a positive student leadership role by excelling in classes, by contributing to a sense of community and unity within the college, and by interacting with other students and employees of the college in a courteous, cooperative manner. The award amounts are disbursed equally to each quarter's expenses.

Students also may be eligible for scholarships from alternative sources and funding from a variety of lending institutions. United States citizens and resident aliens may be eligible for applicable federal and state aid. Questions regarding scholarships and other financial assistance may be directed to the admission office at 912.525.5100 or 800.869.7223 or admission@scad.edu.
