Scholarships are now CLOSED!

To increase the access and diversity of our convention attendance, SPA is excited to offer the following scholarships for our students, early-career, and members from diverse backgrounds. All scholarships will be in the form of a waiver, and only ONE scholarship may be received at a time. Please note, global attendees are welcome to apply for whatever scholarships they qualify for. We do ask that ALL scholarship winners volunteer at the SPA Convention for a minimum of 4 hours. At this time, we are no longer accepting applications for our scholarships. We encourage you to apply next year!
