Scholarship Distribution:

Applications are evaluated and scored by SHRM volunteers and/or SHRM staff. All decisions are final. If selected to receive the Undergraduate or Graduate Academic Scholarship, recipients will be required to provide proof of enrollment and college/university payment instructions. The SHRM Foundation will issue a check not to exceed $10,000 directly to the institution for payment of tuition and fees required for enrollment or attendance at the educational institution of one graduate and one undergraduate student.  Fees for books, supplies, room/board and equipment are not covered by this award.

Special Considerations:

Each scholarship is a one-time award; however, previous applicants and past scholarship recipients are eligible to re-apply.

  • Full-time, part-time, online, and distance learning programs are acceptable.
  • Scholarships are for college-degree programs only and may not be used to attend professional development seminars.
