Native American Scholarship Database...

Native American Scholarship Database for high school students entering college in 2017-18

Created by Tami Johnson – Licensed School Counselor 2005/updated annually

These scholarships are available specifically for Native American high school students. Students should be encouraged to

apply to ALL other sources of financial aid for which they are eligible.

Helping students with Tribal Enrollment Questions

Students may need help understanding tribal enrollment procedures or may need to determine if their tribe is federally

recognized for scholarship purposes. Here are some links of tribal lists and tribal numbers. Students can call to ask about

tribal enrollment process or eligibility; they must know the name and date of birth of the parent or grandparent they believe is

enrolled in the tribe. The enrollment process and timeline varies by tribe.

List of Federally Recognized Tribes and Phone list: http://www.ncai.org/tribal-directory

List of State Recognized Tribes: http://500nations.com/tribes/Tribes_States.asp

U.S. Department of the Interior/Trace Indian Ancestry: https://www.doi.gov/tribes/trace-ancestry

Common Documentation needed

CDIB: Certificate of Degree of Indian Blood (a.k.a. CIB, enrollment letter, letter of descent) is a document from the tribe

showing the fraction of tribal blood for that member or descendant.

Proof of Tribal Enrollment: Letter (not enrollment card) from the tribe with the member’s tribal enrollment number on it.

The letter may also include the degree of blood.
