NASPA Foundation Membership Scholarship Application

NASPA Foundation Membership Scholarship Application
The NASPA Foundation, in partnership with NASPA, is excited to offer this scholarship opportunity designed to keep NASPA members connected to the field and the Association during the unprecedented impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Donor gifts have allowed for scholarships to directly support membership dues in full for the Transitional Membership available to those who have been furloughed or laid off due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

If you do not qualify for the Transitional Membership, scholarships are also open for any NASPA member or potential member in need, including those without institutional support for professional development:
- Transitional Members - full funding
- Graduate Student Affiliates - full funding
- Professional Affiliates - 50% funding (member dues reduced from $75 to $38)
- Associate Affiliates - funding for the difference between Associate Affiliate and Professional Affiliate rates (member dues reduced from $242 to $75)
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis in order of expiration date. Applicants will be contacted within two weeks of their application submission. Scholarships are currently available until funding is expended, whichever comes first. The NASPA Foundation will extend the program as needed.

Eligibility Requirements:

Scholarships are open for anyone in the field (both current members* and non-members) in need, with preference given to individuals recently furloughed, partially furloughed, laid-off, recently graduated without employment, and/or without institutional support for professional development.

*Those with current memberships that will expire within 90 days of submitting their application are eligible to apply.
