SHA 2023 Scholarship Program Applications

The SHA Scholarship Program provides a limited amount of funding for students, who are current SHA members, to attend a field school and/or to conduct dissertation research/fieldwork.

Field School Scholarships: This program will place priority on awarding scholarships for students to participate in field schools that provide instruction in Historical Archaeology and archaeological field methods. April 15, 2023 deadline for applications.

Dissertation Research Scholarships: This program will place priority on awarding scholarships for students needing to travel or conduct research to complete their dissertation in Historical Archaeology. May 1, 2023 deadline for applications.

A committee will be formed within SHA to review applications and decide on awardees. Each year the committee identifies the number of scholarships that will be awarded as well as the amounts granted. All applications will be vetted, and the top candidates will be interviewed via Zoom. Applicants should be aware that if they receive financial aid from their university, their eligibility for various other sources of aid may be affected upon receipt of a scholarship. Applicants are encouraged to consult with their university’s financial aid office before applying.

The applications for both the Field School Scholarship and the Dissertation Research and Travel Scholarship are below.

The SHA Scholarship Program is made possible through a generous donation. The amount of funding awarded each year is determined by the amount that is donated to the program.
