The Amelia Earhart Memorial Scholarships & Awards
Beginning with the 2020 application cycle, Chapters and Sections may submit only the number of applications permitted by their quota; Alternates will no longer be accepted. Additionally, Flight Training and Technical Training scholarships are limited to a maximum award of $20,000.

There are five separate Amelia Earhart Memorial Scholarship applications in order to accommodate the most common types of requests. The applicant should use the application form most appropriate to her circumstances and goal.

Additional changes go into effect for 2020, so be sure to carefully read the instructions! Applications and instructions are now available on the website at http://www.ninety-nines.org/scholarships.htm.
