Applications are open for the 2024-25 Maryland Space Grant Scholarships, with a deadline of May 31, 2024: https://md.spacegrant.org/
- These scholarships are awarded to full-time STEM majors who are planning to work for NASA or other space-research or aerospace-related careers. Applicants must be U.S. citizens and enrolled full-time at UMD. Eligibility requirements also include a 3.0 GPA or better. Space Grant puts a strong emphasis on funding students from groups that have been traditionally underrepresented in Astronomy, including women, persons of color, veterans and LGBT+ students.
- Awards are typically in the $1k - 2k range and must be used for educational expenses (tuition, books, fees, and room and board). The award is for one year and is renewable annually.
- Please feel free to contact me (mhayesge@umd.edu) or the MD Space Grant office (collinge@jhu.edu) if you have any questions. Good luck!
