 Naga American Foundation Announces Annual Scholarship 2020-21



The Naga American Foundation announces the launch of its 2020-21 Aryo Shishak Memorial Scholarships.

These scholarships are open to all Naga/Naga-American students enrolled in higher education studies in the United States. Given unprecedented events this year, the NAF will be awarding a total of four $500 scholarships during the 2020-21 scholarship period: Two scholarships will be awarded to undergraduate students, and two scholarships to graduate students.

It is the foundation’s hope that these scholarship offerings will be of small assistance to the Naga student community in the United States.

Interested candidates must submit an essay on their experiences as Naga/Naga-American students studying in the US. Previous applicants are encouraged to apply under the provision that they are not past scholarship recipients.

The deadline to apply is 11:59pm (ET) on December 31, 2020.

Winners will be announced by late January 2021. To learn more, please visit nafconnect.net/scholarships.

About the Dr. Aryo Shishak Memorial Scholarships

The Dr. Aryo Shishak Memorial Scholarships are named in honor of Dr. Aryo Shishak, an early pioneer of the NAF, and a former president and board member of the organization.

Dr. Shishak passed away on September 24, 2017, and in October 2017, the NAF announced the renaming of its scholarships in memory of Dr. Shishak’s decades-long service to the NAF and the Naga community in the US.

To date, the NAF has awarded scholarships to 15 recipients.
