NO!!!





Higher education funding opportunities for American Indians are reserved for ENROLLED MEMBERS/CITIZENS of US Federally Recognized Tribes. Your heritage does not qualify you for anything but your citizenship can.





According to the Bureau of Indian Education:


A student must: Be a member of, or at least one-quarter degree Indian blood descendant of a member of an American Indian tribe who are eligible for the special programs and services provided by the United States through the Bureau of Indian Affairs to Indians because of their status as Indians.





If you are enrolled (or become enrolled) funding would come from your tribe of enrollment, not the US Government. Tribes vary on the scholarships they distribute. Some tribes give $50 to their tribal members, others give full tuition, it all depends on the tribe. Likewise, some tribes have competitive scholarships and others offer non-competitive scholarships. Beyond tribal scholarships are scholarships offered by colleges and universities and non-profit organizations. Most of these will require proof of tribal enrollment in order to be eligible.Is it true that you can go to college for free if you can trace your roots back to a Native American tribe?
Only if the tribe accepts you as a member.
