Nick Winter Memorial Scholarship Fund Award Competition for Undergraduate and Graduate Students

Remembering Nick Winter

Deadline: April 1, 2016

The Association of State Floodplain Managers and ASFPM Foundation will grant a $2,500 scholarship for the 2016-2017 academic year to a full-time college junior or senior currently enrolled in an undergraduate program related to floodplain/stormwater management, or a student enrolled in a graduate program in a field related to floodplain/stormwater management.

Eligible applicants include current undergraduates in a four-year college program, applicants to a graduate program or current graduate students. Applicants must be enrolled in an accredited university or college in the United States and be a citizen of the U.S. Eligible fields of discipline include civil or environmental engineering, planning, emergency management, environmental sciences or other disciplines with a demonstrable link to floodplain and stormwater management.

Applicants must complete a Scholarship Application Form. Selection preference will be given to those applicants who demonstrate a history of civic or volunteer service, as well as a financial need (i.e. full-time students responsible for their own tuition), in addition to meeting the basic qualifications. In order to be considered, the Scholarship Review Committee must receive the Scholarship Application Form and a separate reference letter by April 1, 2016.

Scholarship funds will be paid directly to the recipient’s college or university.
