Those of you with Moebius who are either thinking about attending college, or are already are doing so; plus those Moebius parents out there whose kiddos will be attending college--you all want to take careful note of this.  We are very proud to be rolling out this program:

[There is a link on the MSF website page for the scholarship that will allow you to download the application form. Go to the link I've included above.]

You will want to submit the form with:
  • A one page essay on why you should receive this scholarship.
  • 2 letters of reference from teachers, employers, etc.
  • A transcript from your high school or college/university/post secondary institution.

  • Submit essay, letters of reference and all written correspondence in one combined Microsoft Word File to scholarship@moebiussyndrome.org. The transcripts should be sent as a PDF file.

    Good luck, applicants; and we look forward to helping, in the years to come, many young people with Moebius as they pursue their dreams of a college degree and the career they wish to pursue.
