Careers in Conservation Scholarship Program Application
Academic Year 2023-2024
Application Deadline: February 1, 2023 @ 11:59PM
The NC Foundation for Soil and Water Conservation’s Careers in Conservation Scholarship Program’s goal is to increase the number of qualified people committed to working in the field of natural resource management thereby supporting the mission of Soil and Water Conservation Districts. Scholarship recipients will be students who are currently pursuing or have firm plans to pursue a college degree in natural resource management or other closely related fields AND attending a North Carolina university or community college. The term “college” will be used to reference both a university or community college throughout the application.
The Foundation’s scholarship program is funded by generous donations of the Bowman family.
