The Beldon Scholarship is a scholarship program offered by the Beldon Fund, which is a private foundation that supports environmental and social change initiatives in the United States. The scholarship program provides financial assistance to students who are pursuing degrees in fields related to environmental sustainability, social justice, or public policy.
The scholarship award varies depending on the student’s financial need and the cost of attendance at their institution. The award can be used to cover tuition, fees, books, and other education-related expenses. Scholarship recipients are expected to maintain a minimum GPA of 3.0 and demonstrate satisfactory progress toward their degree.
The application deadline for the Beldon Scholarship typically falls in the spring of each year. Students can apply by submitting an online application form, official transcripts, a resume or CV, and two letters of recommendation from professors or professional contacts. Applicants may also be required to submit a personal essay or statement of purpose that explains their interest in environmental sustainability, social justice, or public policy, and how they plan to use their education to make a positive impact in these areas.
