As January wraps up and 2024 gradually grows busier and busier for everybody, the AMA Education teams wanted to make sure that every eligible student has the best available chance to receive an academic scholarship for the fall semester. That’s why the deadline to submit an application has been moved back three full weeks to February 25!
Each year the AMA Foundation provides ~$40,000 in financial aid for high school graduates and postsecondary students, and starting this year, scholarships are available for students attending credited trade schools in addition to those attending traditional colleges and universities!
Applicants may be eligible to receive up to $15,000 depending on the specific criteria they meet, which encompass everything from community involvement to FAI competition performance.
More information about the different scholarships is available here, and the application portal is here. Once again, the deadline to apply is midnight on February 25, 2024, and the Education team is available to answer any questions at Education@modelaircraft.org.
Best of luck, and happy flying!
