The CyberCorps SFS Scholarship for Service (SFS) program provides funds to institutions of higher education that award scholarships to students who agree to work after graduation in the cybersecurity mission of a Federal executive agency, Congress (including any agency, entity, office, or commission established in the legislative branch), an interstate agency, a state, local or Tribal government or government-affiliated non-profit considered to be critical infrastructure, or as an educator in the field of cybersecurity at a qualified institution of higher education, as defined in 15 U.S.C. 7442(b)(3)(B).
