There is not a uniformed criterion for the selected few tribal scholarships. Please search for your specific tribe if it is not listed here. The following scholarships have tribal enrollment requirements for each respective tribe holding the scholarship. Tribal enrollment criteria are set forth in tribal constitutions, articles of incorporation or ordinances. The criterion varies from tribe to tribe, so uniform membership requirements do not exist.
