Eligibility

ASH Foundation Graduate Student Scholarship for Minority Students, with an application deadline in May, offers 3 awards of $5000 each.

Description

The American Speech-Language-Hearing Foundation invites students who will be or who are currently enrolled in a communication sciences and disorders graduate program to apply for graduate scholarships. Students who are undergraduate seniors or who are currently pursuing master's or doctoral degrees may apply. Both research and clinical doctorate students are eligible. The Minority Student Scholarship is for students who are members of a racial or ethnic minority group. The applicant must have three confidential letters of recommendation. The letters can be from a combination of academic faculty and work references, depending on the applicant's specific situation. Applicants who are currently enrolled in an undergraduate program must submit at least two letters from an academic faculty at their current undergraduate college or university program. Applicants who are currently enrolled in a graduate program must submit at least two letters from an academic faculty. These letters can come from faculty at the applicant's current or past college or university program. Applicants who are returning to school from the workforce are allowed to have letters from colleagues (and at least one supervisor) at their current place of employment, as well as letters from references who are familiar with their academic history and potential.
