Marine-related scholarships are being offered by Seaspace, Inc., an annual underwater film festival, symposium, and exposition. SEASPACE is a 501(3)(c) organization. The SEASPACE Permanent Education Fund earnings and private donations endow scholarships specifically in support of marine-related courses of study. Financial assistance has been provided to more than 304 students enrolled in accredited colleges and universities throughout the United States. Approximately 75% of past awards have been to graduate students, with the rest going to undergraduates. Majors have included marine sciences, marine biology, wildlife and fisheries, environmental toxicology, biological oceanography, genetics, ocean engineering, aquaculture and zoology with marine mammal applications.
The scholarships are open to undergraduate students entering their junior or senior years and graduate students with an overall GPA of at least 3.3/4.0 and demonstrating financial need. Students must be enrolled or accepted full-time in an accredited US college or university beginning with the 2007 fall term. United States citizenship is not a requirement.
The application document must be received no later than 11:59 PM, December 1, 2006 to be eligible for consideration, regardless of mailing date. No email/electronic entries will be accepted. Late arrivals will not be returned to the sender nor will they be scored. The application is available for download below. In order to keep administrative costs down, there will be no mailout unless the request is accompanied by a self-addressed, stamped envelope. Inquiries may be directed to Jesse Cancelmo.
Applicants will be notified by email in mid February, 2007 regarding the results of the competition.
PLEASE USE CURRENT FORMS ONLY!!!
