CyberCorps Scholarship for Service (SFS) program - nyvrem - 08-13-2022

Came across this for those who might be interested to venture into the cyber security field. 

It's not online !!! but hey... there's a chance to get sponsored for a full PhD 

https://www.sfs.opm.gov/

Quote:This program provides scholarships for up to 3 years of support for cybersecurity undergraduate and graduate (MS or PhD) education.

But base on their FAQ, don't look like it applies to online programs

Quote:

  • 2. Are there any online programs available?
    While many of the participating universities may offer an online cybersecurity degree program they do not offer the scholarship for online programs. There may be a few that will allow some courses to be online but you have to be on campus. This is unlike most scholarships. If awarded the scholarship you become part of a cohort that works closely together on projects, attends regular meetings, etc. that require you to be on campus.


An example of a school with the program here.
