This ASPRS program brings together several scholarships, cash awards, and a research grant for students in geospatial sciences, from undergraduate to graduate level. The application goes through myASPRS, with two recommendation letters submitted separately, and the track still open today is the Geospatial Science Research Grant, until December 1, 2026. The funding lines retained include covered research costs, 3,000 USD for travel, and several cash awards, but the support remains partial.

Dr Kafoutchoni’s reading
The key word here is « myASPRS »: the main bottleneck is not the scholarship text, but the entry point reserved for student members. Before writing, separate the targets: the research grant requires a budget using the prescribed template and a dedicated research statement, while several individual scholarships are only open to students enrolled in the United States or Canada. If your profile does not fit that geography, do not waste a version on closed lines: first target the tracks that are actually accessible, and keep the same core statement for each award. Notify recommenders early, because the two letters go through a separate channel. Open your access, secure the references, then adapt a short, distinct file for each scholarship you are targeting.
