What does a Hollings Undergraduate Scholarship award provide?
The Hollings Undergraduate Scholarship program provides selected undergraduate applicants with awards that include financial assistance (up to a maximum of $8,000) for two academic years of full-time study and a 10-week, full-time internship position ($650/week) during the summer at a NOAA facility. The internship between first and second years of award provides a hands-on multidisciplinary educational and training experience involving scholars in NOAA-related science, research, technology, policy, management, and education activities. Awards also include a mandatory NOAA orientation during the last week of May in the first year of the scholarship award; a housing subsidy for scholars who do not reside at home during the summer internship; round-trip travel to the internship site including reimbursement for incidentals; and travel funds for attendance and participation at a Hollings Scholarship program conference at the completion of the internship.
