Our Annual Academic Scholarships
Are you a college junior, senior, or graduate student enrolled in hydrology, hydrogeology, or another water-resources-related program at any 4-year university or college in Arizona? If so, you should consider applying for our academic scholarship!
AHS awards up to three $3,000 scholarships for the academic year to encourage full-time students to excel in their area of study. The scholarship is awarded at the annual symposium (Friday awards luncheon).
Application deadline for the 2024–2025 academic year: April 15, 2024
Previous winners of this academic scholarship are not eligible; however, they can apply for our intern scholarship program.
Note: The 2024 awards will be presented at a chapter meeting or special ceremony since we are not hosting a September symposium this year (BSMAR18 will be held in April).
