2. Final Day To Apply: The American Association of Blacks in Energy Announces Scholarship Application

AABE National & Regional Scholarship – the deadline for students to submit is Friday, March 10, 2023.  I encourage each of you to read the overview of the scholarship at this same link to familiarize yourself with the eligibility requirements.  Furthermore, in addition to the national and regional scholarships, the Arkansas Chapter of AABE also awards a local scholarship.  The single application applies for all three scholarships.  We typically award the local scholarship to the top three candidates from Arkansas.  These three candidates are then forwarded on to compete for the regional scholarship.  Each regional winner is then forwarded on to compete for the national scholarship.
