What is a Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)? FSEOGs are awarded to undergraduate students with exceptional financial need—those with the lowest Expected Family Contribution (EFC) numbers (see here ). Federal Pell Grant recipients receive priority for FSEOG awards. Unlike Pell Grants, the amount of FSEOG funds you receive depends not only on your financial need but also on the amount of other aid you get and the availability of funds at your school. Receiving other aid might reduce the amount of your FSEOG award. FSEOGs are administered by the financial aid office at each school participating in the program. We provide a certain amount of FSEOG funds each year to those schools. When all funds are used for that award year, no more FSEOG awards can be made for that year. So, make sure you apply for federal student aid early to be considered for these funds. You can get between $100 and $4,000 a year, depending on when you apply, your financial need, the funding level of the school you're attending, and the policies of your school's financial aid office. Your school can credit your grant funds to your school account, pay you directly (usually by check), or combine these methods. Also, with your permission, schools can credit your bank account. Schools must disburse at least once per term (semester, trimester, or quarter). Schools that don't use formally defined, traditional terms must disburse funds at least twice per academic year. Can I receive a grant if I'm enrolled less than half time? Yes, if you're otherwise eligible. You won't receive as much as if you were enrolled full time, however.

A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid. Pell Grants are awarded usually only to undergraduate students who have not earned a bachelor's or a professional degree. (In some cases, however, a student enrolled in a post-baccalaureate teacher certification program might receive a Pell Grant.) Pell Grants are considered a foundation of federal financial aid, to which aid from other federal and nonfederal sources might be added.

The fellowships are a nine-month academic program that allows eligible professional journalists to acquire knowledge necessary to cover the environment more effectively and enrich the public's understanding of this crucial subject. The Scripps fellows audit classes, conduct in-depth research, and reflect on critical questions without the pressure of deadlines.

An Undergraduate Research Fellowship has been established by friends and colleagues of Dr. Frank L. Howard with the assistance of the American Phytopathological Society (APS) Foundation. The award was established to encourage the involvement of undergraduate students in plant pathology research and to encourage students to pursue advanced degrees and careers in plant pathology.

The American Hemerocallis Society (AHS) is pleased to solicit applications for an AHS Student Research Fellowship from graduate or undergraduate students using daylilies (plant genus Hemerocallis) as experimental organisms in original thesis research projects. A grant award will be made to successful candidate(s) for a maximum amount of $2,000 for the calendar year. Two (2) renewals of the grant may be made for a total of three years of support, based on submission of a satisfactory annual report in October of each year. A final report will be required, and AHS financial support must be cited in any publications resulting from the grant.All aspects of scientific research on Hemerocallis will be considered.

The Carl Albert Center offers an attractive five-year fellowship leading to a Ph. D. in political science. During the first three years, fellows serve as teaching or research assistants while engaged in coursework. Students spend the fourth year in Washington D.C. as congressional fellows, and the fifth year back on campus, completing the dissertation without any additional responsibilities. Currently the stipend for the first three years on campus is $1,445/month ($17,340/year). The stipend in Washington, during the fourth year, is currently $2,800/month. During the fifth year, when the student returns to campus to complete the dissertation, the stipend is $1,625/month.

The Mineralogical Society of America announces the MSA Grant For Student Research In Mineralogy And Petrology from an endowment created by contributions from the MSA membership. The grant comprises two awards of up to $5000 each for research in mineralogy and petrology. Students, including graduate and undergraduate students, are encouraged to apply. However, all proposals are considered together. The award selection will be based on the qualifications of the applicant, the quality, innovativeness, and scientific significance of the research, and the likelihood of success of the project.

The Student Academy Awards is a national competition conducted by the Academy and the Academy Foundation. Each year over 500 college and university film students from all over the United States compete for awards and cash grants, with films being judged in four categories: Animation, Documentary, Narrative and Alternative. An outstanding student filmmaker from outside the U.S. is honored each year as well. The presentation ceremony is a popular event that is annually attended by a capacity audience in the Academy's Samuel Goldwyn Theater.

Each year, the NSS awards a Ralph W. Stone Graduate Fellowship for cave-related thesis research. The annual award is currently $1700. NSS members currently pursuing graduate studies anywhere in the Worlds are eligible to apply. Applicants should submit a proposal package including: * A project description, i.e. a summary of previous work in the field of study and how the proposed project should expand our understanding of that field; a statement describing what data are to be acquired and how; and a section describing possible results and implications of the study. The project description including figures and tables is limited to seven (7) pages. An additional two pages may be used for the 'Literature Cited' section. * A resume, including your NSS number. * A detailed academic record, such as a grade transcript (unofficial copies are acceptable). * At least two letters of recommendation, including one from your thesis advisor. * A budget and budget justification, including a list of other organizations to which this (or a similar) proposal has been or will be submitted. Specifically, we want to know how the awardee will spend any funding we provide.
