Club for the Future Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics
Intro The AIAA and Club for the Future Resilient Student Scholarship, launched in 2023, supports students aiming for degrees in aerospace. It was established to uplift and motivate applicants who have overcome notable obstacles—examples include living with a disability, facing significant economic hardship, or being the first person in their family to attend college. The award is funded through a partnership with Club for the Future, whose mission is to encourage future generations toward STEM careers and to help shape the future of life in space. Award Details One $10,000 scholarship will be granted to a graduating high school senior who will enroll in a STEM program at a college, university, or 2-year technical institution. In addition to the financial award, the recipient will be paired with a mentor from AIAA’s community of professional members to provide guidance toward a career in aerospace. Eligibility - Must be a graduating high school senior planning to pursue a STEM degree at a college, university, or technical (2-year) institution. - Will be enrolled at a U.S. institution for the upcoming fall term. - Should demonstrate financial need. - Should have experienced challenges such as disability, difficult socioeconomic circumstances, or being the first in their family to attend college (applicants who fit these or similar circumstances are especially encouraged to apply).
