http://www.nanpa.org/learning/studentprograms/summit-college-photography-scholarship-program/

North American Nature Photography Association   /   Deadline: 10/31/18

If you love nature and photography, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make personal contacts with the top pros in nature photography, as well as, editors and other industry leaders, as you participate in the 2019 North American Nature Photography Association (NANPA) Summit College Photography Scholarship Program held before the biennial NANPA Nature Photography Summit and Trade Show in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Apply now for a scholarship that will enable you to participate in the 2019 NANPA Summit College Photography Scholarship Program and the biennial NANPA Nature Photography Summit and Trade Show. This is a great time of fellowship with some of the top nature photographers and includes outstanding opportunities to network with peers and professionals, attend workshops, and photograph in the field alongside professional photographers and mentors. Scholarship awardees will also participate in a field-based, story-telling project for a Summit-area client.
