Laverne Noyes Foundation Scholarship
The Laverne Noyes Foundation Scholarship is a renewable scholarship, awarded to a limited number of qualified students registered at The University of Texas at Austin, who are blood descendents of individuals who rendered service in World War I between April 6, 1917, and November 11, 1918 and whose service was terminated by death or honorable discharge.

When awarding the Laverne Noyes Foundation Scholarship, in addition to considering an applicant’s relation to a WWI veteran, the scholarship committee considers an applicant’s financial need, socioeconomic status, academic and extra-curricular achievements, and hardships. As with most scholarships awarded through the University, funds are limited and the selection process is highly competitive.
