This workshop is aimed at providing application support with general application tips, guidance on asking for letters of recommendation, and best practices for essay writing. While focused on the NOAA Hollings Scholarship application, much of what we cover will also be helpful when applying to other opportunities (e.g., other scholarships or internships) and may be of general interest. You do need to have attended the first workshop to benefit from this one. The Hollings Scholarship Program provides the following: * A scholarship up to $9,500 per year for two years of full-time study * A 10-week, full-time paid ($700/week) internship at a NOAA facility during the summer. * Travel funds to attend a mandatory NOAA Scholarship Program orientation and the annual Science & Education Symposium, scientific conferences where students present their research, and a housing subsidy for scholars who do not reside at home during the summer internship. Eligibility Requirements for this scholarship: * Be a U.S. citizen; * Be currently enrolled or accepted as a full-time 2nd year student in a four-year academic program or as a full-time 3rd year student in a five-year undergraduate program (e.g. some engineering programs). * Earn and maintain a 3.0 GPA in all courses each term and cumulative, as well as an overall GPA of 3.0 in your major field of study. The GPA requirement applies prior to and at the time of application for a scholarship, for the period between application and award notification, and after award distribution. * Have and maintain a declared major in a discipline including, but not limited to, oceanic, environmental, biological, and atmospheric sciences, mathematics, engineering, remote sensing technology, physical and social sciences including geography, physics, hydrology, geomatics, or education - all fields that support NOAA's programs and mission.

We hope you will identify senior students at your college or university who may be interested in participating in this research training program. Please feel free to forward this message to students who are interested in attending graduate school to pursue research careers in the biomedical and behavioral sciences. The attached flyer can also be provided to your students. VCU PREP is funded by the National Institutes of Health, and provides scholars with a salary of $29,120 for July 1, 2023-June 30, 2024. VCU PREP aims to increase the number of underrepresented PhD students in the US (for example, African Americans, Latinx/Hispanic Americans, Native Americans, students with disabilities, etc.). Students participate in a year-long intensive mentored research experience in an area of biomedical research of their choice, and receive coaching and preparation to apply to PhD programs. Eighty-five percent of trainees immediately enter a graduate program upon completing VCU PREP. Additional program information is included on the VCU Center on Health Disparities website at https://healthdisparities.vcu.edu/. The on-line application is also available there, under the Research & Training tab under Post-Baccalaureate Programs. VCU PREP candidates must be US citizens, US permanent residents, or US nationals to be eligible for the program. Candidates must have earned a baccalaureate degree or its equivalent at the time of enrollment (July 1, 2022), and no more than 36 months prior to their selection for participation. An undergraduate cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 is generally expected for VCU PREP scholars. The application should include: undergraduate transcripts, 3 letters of recommendation from teachers or research mentors, and a personal statement demonstrating a commitment to a career in biomedical research. The supplementary materials (letters and transcripts) should be sent by email to cohdtraining@vcuhealth.org. Unofficial transcripts may be used for the application, but to be admitted to the program, official transcripts are required. The deadline to receive complete applications, including transcripts and letters of reference, is March 15, 2023. If you have questions about the application process, please contact Mrs. Khiana Nelson at cohdtraining@vcuhealth.org.
