George D. McCoy Scholarship

Bleeding Disorders Foundation of North Carolina

George D. McCoy Education Scholarship
1. $1000 award
2. Eligibility: Applicant must be diagnosed with mild, moderate, or severe Hemophilia A
3. Funded by Bleeding Disorders Foundation of North Carolina

Any applicant diagnosed with Hemophilia A is automatically considered for both scholarships.

Applicants must be seeking education from an accredited college, university, or certified training program based in the United States. At least one award will be made to an applicant pursuing education in a health related field.

Awards are primarily merit based, but financial need will be considered as well. A copy of the applicant's current FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid – available at fafsa.gov) is required. The FAFSA is a detailed analysis of how much an applicant can be expected to pay toward the cost of their education. All students expecting to enroll in undergraduate, graduate or professional, or technical programs are eligible to complete the FAFSA, even if they are not expecting to qualify for federal aid. If the applicant feels that the FAFSA report is not an accurate representation of their financial need, then they may submit additional information for consideration.

All personal information will be treated as completely confidential. The Bleeding Disorders Foundation of North Carolina (BDFNC) and Optum Infusion Pharmacy will never divulge the applicant's name, address, financial, or health-related information to any other organization, company, or individual without their express permission. Scholarship winners may be asked (though not required) to submit a photograph and sign a release form for publicity purposes.

Applicants are not required to be—nor is any preference given to—residents of North Carolina.
