| About NSA
The National Security Agency (NSA) is a world leader in protecting US
government information systems and producing foreign signals intelligence
information for our Nation’s key decision makers. They are looking for
intelligent and imaginative critical thinkers to help us meet these goals.
If this sounds like you, then consider the Stokes Educational Scholarship
Program as a way to get a jump on your career.

study. You’ll acquire real-world experience and receive a salary year
round! Best yet, after you graduate college, you won’t have to go through
the job search hassle … a position will be waiting for you – in your area of
study – in the exciting world of NSA.
