Scholarships Available: Applications Due July 7

 

The NEARC Board of Directors established a Scholarship Fund to provide a limited number of discounted registrations for applicants who demonstrate the need for financial assistance. Professionals and students are welcome to apply using the links below. This year a two-tier application process was created to provide access to scholarships ahead of critical conference deadlines.

 

The initial application round closes next Friday, July 7, 2023. Please note, no late scholarship applications will be accepted. 

 

Successful applicants will receive notification Monday, July 10, 2023. The timing of the application process is designed to allow scholarship recipients time to submit an abstract by the July 14 deadline. Subsequently, depending on the applicant pool and remaining funds, a second round of scholarships may be offered two weeks before the early registration deadline.
