The United Daughters of the Confederacy offers scholarships to lineal descendants of Confederate soldiers and sailors who fought honorably during the War Between the States. The lineage must be straight-line lineal (i.e., great grandfather, great-great grandfather), as opposed to collateral (i.e., great uncle, second cousin, etc.). A GPA of 3.0 or higher is required to apply. A scholarship application is available year-round from the Division 2nd Vice President. Applications are good for both the General scholarships and the four South Carolina Division scholarships, when available. The South Carolina Division scholarships are available to residents of our state for use in state schools, colleges and universities. The deadline for submission of scholarship applications to the South Carolina Division 2nd Vice President is February 15th of each year. All applications are forwarded to the UDC Business Office for consideration in the awarding of available General scholarships. When the General awards are announced during the summer, the remaining eligible applications are considered for any available Division scholarships. Information about the General scholarships can be obtained at www.hqudc.org. South Carolina Division currently has four endowed scholarships: the Poppenheim Scholarship, the Dotsy Lloyd Boineau Scholarship, the Jonathan H. Owings Scholarship, and the Marjorie Nelson Adamson Scholarship. Students who apply for scholarships through the South Carolina Division are required to comply with published rules. |
