    The AIA/AAF Minority/Disadvantaged Scholarship provides assistance to
    high school graduates, college freshmen, and community college students
    from a minority and/or financially disadvantaged background who intend
    to pursue a NAAB-accredited professional degree (5-year BA or BA + MA)
    in architecture.  Applicants must be legal residents of the U.S.

    The application requires a letter of recommendation from a high school
    guidance counselor, architect, or other individual who is aware of the
    student's interest and aptitude for architecture, and an application
    prepared by the student, including an essay, statement of disadvantaged
    circumstances, letters of recommendations, transcripts and a drawing.
