The following is excerpted from the AFA site:
Through AFA's affiliation with Grantham University, AFA is pleased to provide a Full 4-Year Online Degree Scholarship to an Active Duty Dependent, an AFA Member, or a dependent of an AFA Member. One (1) full four-year scholarship, bearing a total value of approximately $28,000, to Grantham University, also includes required books and software. To be eligible, candidates must have a high school diploma or GED.
