College Circle - Free Help for College-Bound Students

Attention: College Bound High School or College Students!
--Esther Worker, ESRI 4-H Program Manager
Several of the geospatial and industry specific professional societies offer scholarships to high school, undergraduate, and graduate students interested in GIS, the environment, science, engineering, etc.

Keep these organizations in mind throughout college, as some of the scholarships are for degree seeking students who have successfully completed a couple of years of college.

Information about the National level scholarships are usually posted on-line however there are often regional or local chapters that also offer additional scholarships – you may need to contact those individual chapters personally as they don't always post scholarship information.

Here are just a few places to begin the search, just explore the organizations web sites to find the scholarship information (if it's been posted).  Sometimes it's under chapters, careers, education, students, contests and awards, or hidden in some other area of the web site.

In addition to the links above, do a web search on “GIS Scholarship” or “geospatial scholarship” and see what you get back, there are many local and user groups that offer scholarships – there are too many to include here.

Congratulations!
