Carleton's Minnesota Space Grant Consortium Scholarship

Through its participation in the Minnesota Space Grant Consortium, Carleton offers MnSGC Scholarships up to $1000 to students whose area of study and career goals are related to NASA's interests in space, space-related sciences,  and engineering.  Student applicants must be registered full-time at Carleton and must be U.S. citizens.

To apply, fill out the student information form (download below) and provide the following documents:

  • A recent college transcript (an unofficial copy is acceptable).
  • A letter of intent (one page, typed, double-spaced) describing your educational and career goals and how they relate, directly or indirectly, to NASA's Vision for Space Exploration and to NASA's interest in increasing diversity in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) workforce. (To read more about what NASA has done, is currently doing, and hopes to do in the future, follow the "About NASA" link at http://www.nasa.gov.)
