Lynn Forney Young Scholarship

The Lynn Forney Young Scholarship is named in honor of Texas Genealogical College Co-Founder Lynn Forney Young. 

Texas Genealogical College seeks to promote and support genealogical education through the genealogical programs at Boston University by providing the Lynn Forney Young Scholarship to deserving applicants. Development and improvement of genealogical skills and competencies is a meaningful way to contribute to the genealogical, heritage and lineage society communities. 

Scholarship funds for the deserving recipient of The Lynn Forney Young Scholarship will be paid directly to Boston University to cover or partially cover the tuition cost of either the Genealogical Principles Course (a 7- week online course) or the Certificate in Genealogical Research Course (a 15- week online course). Scholarship funds will be distributed directly to Boston University.
