Labroots Undergraduate Scholarship

This scholarship welcomes applicants enrolled in an accredited undergraduate degree program (BA, BS) to apply for funding to offset costs associated with academic pursuits in a science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) field.  

Textbooks and materials for undergraduate STEM programs can often be expensive, especially if they need to be purchased new. The Labroots Undergraduate Back to School scholarship will provide one incoming or current undergraduate student with $1000 to directly offset the costs of course textbooks and materials. The scholarship is merit-based and applicants should describe their qualifications in the application process.

Labroots supports undergraduate and graduate students pursuing degrees in STEM disciplines. This program is open to students both in, and outside the US; there are no geographical limits for applicants. Labroots wishes to encourage all students to stay in science and aims to help students work towards their research and educational goals.

Eligibility:

• Applicants must be enrolled or accepted for an undergraduate degree (BA/BS) for the 24/25 academic year at a recognized institution.
• The degree program/research area must be in a Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics field.
