## About this scholarship

The Louisiana National Guard Patriot Scholarship is a state-funded financial aid program administered by the Louisiana Office of Student Financial Assistance (LOSFA). This scholarship is designed specifically for members of the Louisiana National Guard who already qualify for the National Guard tuition exemption. While the tuition exemption covers the cost of tuition, this particular scholarship helps recipients by paying for their required student fees at participating institutions. To access this benefit, students must coordinate with their unit and school financial aid offices, and completing the FAFSA or state financial aid applications is typically part of the broader process for establishing eligibility for state-administered aid. Interested service members should consult the official page for current dates and specific application deadlines. This program ensures that eligible guard members can pursue their postsecondary education in Louisiana with fewer out-of-pocket expenses.
