[phas-faculty_staff_others] [phas-dept] FW: Tx Space Grant Scholarship and Fellowship Opportunities 2020-2021 - online App now Open!!!

Wed Feb 5 12:34:21 CST 2020

Good Afternoon,

Attached are funding opportunities for both the undergraduate and graduate level.  I would encourage you to apply and complete the application early. A&M-Commerce is a member institution and as such as a physics major you are eligible to apply.

Part of the application process requests official transcripts however if you will attach a PDF of what you have access to online then it will work unless you are selected for an award.  If selected, then you will be notified and then will need to send official transcripts.   We generally have at least 1 graduate fellowship awarded and 3-4 undergraduate awards.  Funds are sent directly to the awardees.

Please see below for more information and contact me if you have any questions.

Thank you,

Dr. Cheri Davis
