Scholarship Description

They’re ba-ack! Green internships again bring green awards!

SCA announces the return of AmeriCorps Education Awards! In addition to all the other upsides, qualified SCA interns can now gain at least $1,000 for college tuition or to repay school loans.

If you’re interested in scoring this valuable benefit, please be sure to apply now. Applicants must serve at least 300 field hours to be eligible (U.S. citizenship or permanent resident status also required).

If you’re only now considering an SCA internship, these generous Education Awards are just one more great reason to complete and submit your application today. In addition to help for paying for school, SCA benefits include:
• Paid travel to and from the site
• A biweekly stipend
• Free housing
• Free or low cost health insurance
• Forbearance of qualified student loans

• AmeriCorps Education Award!

SCA makes Education Awards available to its interns through its partnership with AmeriCorps and its parent organization, the Corporation for National and Community Service. Together, we believe in national service and want to support those who choose to serve, gain new skills, and make a real difference for our natural and cultural resources.

Please note that all Education Awards are provided to eligible interns not by SCA but by the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) through a contractual agreement between the intern and CNCS. Awards are based on the intern’s compliance with CNCS guidelines and regulations, and dependent upon the availability of federal funds.
