Looking for a scholarship?

Scholarships are great because they
  • show off how smart you are!
  • help motivate you to work on projects that you were already interested in!
  • help pay for your academic program!


What’s not to like? Apply for a scholarship!

ASPRS Scholarship Application deadline 
for the 2014 Academic Year is 
Friday, October 18th, 2013. 

ASPRS connects students with over 15 different award opportunities through ASPRS and affiliated organizations.
Below is a clip of the Awards Section of the ASPRS Scholarship page, for the listing of available scholarships. 

"ASPRS is pleased to offer thirteen awards totaling more than $50,000 in value. Available to both undergraduate and graduate student-members of ASPRS and others, these resources have been generated with the intention of advancing academic and professional goals within the fields of Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and related disciplines. ASPRS recognizes that students are the future of these rapidly evolving fields and encourages all who are qualified to take advantage of these unique opportunities.
Awards are available in the form of cash, travel grants, and data. To be eligible, you must be enrolled in an accredited college or university, and you must be a member of ASPRS for many, but not all, awards. All awards ask that you submit samples of your work and research goals as part of your application, and that you submit a report to ASPRS outlining your research accomplishments upon completion of your grant period."
