AAG's New Home

Welcome to the new resource for Lewis & Clark's Academic Awards & Grants Program! Here you will find information on the various fellowship and scholarship opportunities available to undergraduate and graduate students.

As we are currently transitioning from the previous LC webpage, you will need to navigate between both pages in order to find some information. However, once transitioning is complete, http://academicawardsgrants.blogspot.com will serve as the resource for detailed information about these fellowships and scholarships.

Leave a posting or comment for us to let us know how are doing and what we can do to improve this resource for you. Additionally, follow us on Facebook and on Twitter.

Best,
Tamara Ko

The Development Fund for Black Students in Science and Technology

The Development Fund for Black Students in Science and Technology (DFBSST) is an endowment fund which provides scholarships to African American undergraduate students enrolled in scientific or technical fields of study at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). The Fund was established by a group of concerned black technical professionals who realized that it is essential to provide financial assistance to talented black students who choose to pursue scientific or technical careers. Additionally, these students are supported at historically black institutions of higher learning, where it has been demonstrated that they will experience the highest rates of retention and graduation. The Development Fund provides scholarships of up to $2,000 per year, for a period of up to 4 years. Scholarship Applications are only available through the Financial Aid Offices of pre-qualified schools.
