APA Foundation Scholarships

Applications due 06/12

The APA Foundation assists students by providing educational financing and paid internships in recovery and rebuilding efforts.

The goals of these scholarships are to make the planning profession more accessible to individuals with limited means and to attract the best, brightest, and most talented individuals to the planning profession. By providing scholarships to students of great merit and from historically underrepresented groups we make our profession more representative of — and therefore more responsive to — the diverse communities it serves.

THE 2020 APPLICATION WINDOW IS NOW OPEN
Application deadline: June 12, 2020

One facet of the APA Foundation's mission is advancing social equity in the profession and in our communities. In support of this mission, the Foundation offers the APA Foundation Scholarship.
