What Is AMS Scholarship for Underserved Communities?
This scholarship has a verified history but no verifiable current application cycle. AMS's 2023 announcement described a thirty-year program supporting students traditionally underrepresented in the sciences—especially Hispanic/Latinx, American Indian/Alaska Native, Black/African American/African, and Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander students—who intended careers in weather, water, and climate science. The historical award was $6,000 over two academic years: $3,000 in the freshman year and $3,000 in the sophomore year, with second-year funding dependent on successful completion of the first year.
AMS's official 2024 recipients page names three awardees, confirming that awards were made that year. However, its 2025 recipient page has no underserved-communities category, its current 2026 scholarship index does not list the program, and the dedicated program URL is unavailable. AMS has not published a current application, eligibility guide, award count, or 2027 deadline on the official pages.
