Missing Limbs Entrepreneur's Scholarship program supports higher education. We have a vision of strengthening the country by advancing students' college education. Scholarships are available for graduating high school seniors
(who are Congenital, Accidental Amputee or Limb Difference)
with plans to attend a two-year or four-year institution the following academic year.
Funds will be provided at the end of each school year. First-year students must have graduated from high school after Jan. 1, 2009, and have had at least a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average (GPA) during their Senior year. Second-year students must have graduated from high school after Jan. 1, 2008, and have had at least a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average (GPA) during their first year of college.
We support both U.S. and international students living and attending schools in the U.S. Paying for college can be one of the largest expenses a family can incur. So we are here to help.

Applicant must provide in writing a detailed biography including your goals and what you have done to date to achieve them. This biography can be handwritten or typed. Think about what makes you unique. A copy of ACT and/or SAT 1 Test Scores. You will need letters of recommendation from teachers, guidance counselors or leaders in your community. Provide a copy of your high school or college transcript. Get a picture of yourself. A school picture is perfect. Anything smaller than a wallet size head shot will do.
Make sure these 3 questions are addressed in the detailed biography.
- Are you an amputee?: (Congenital or Accidental Amputee)
LEFT ARM AMPUTATION (for instance)
- How & when did you become an amputee?
- What type of prosthesis(s) do you use?
The cut off date for each year, when all forms must be in, is April 1st.
Once you have all your documents together mail them to MLE at the address below.
