The Women’s Wildlife Conservation Scholarship, established by the NRA Women’s Policies Committee, is a renewable one-year scholarship available to full-time college sophomores, juniors, or seniors who have an interest in the field of wildlife management, forestry, parks or fish and wildlife conservation. To be eligible, applicants must: be a female, undergraduate student in a recognized conservation or environmental-related degree program (i.e. habitat restoration, wildlife biology, conservation) [research projects may be eligible for consideration]; be enrolled as a full-time college sophomore, junior or senior (12 credit hours per semester minimum); and have at least a 3.0 GPA.
Please note that this scholarship may only be used for tuition and fees, books, room and board, and in some cases, research project materials. Scholarship funds will be paid directly to the college or university in the name of the student. The student’s ID number and SSN will be required only if selected. This is awarded per semester, for up to two semesters. Applications will be evaluated based upon their knowledge of conservation and/or natural resource issues, and their commitment to becoming a leader in the realm of conservation.
