Student Grants

The Explorers Club offers grants to students conducting individual scientific or exploration research projects through their respective schools with a supervising instructor. Your instructor must write a letter of support. We do not provide general scholarships for tuition.

Youth Activity Fund for high school students and college undergraduates, fosters a new generation of explorers dedicated to the advancement of scientific knowledge of the world.

Exploration Fund, for graduate, post-graduate, doctorate and early career post-doctoral students, provides grants in support of exploration and field research for those who are just beginning their research careers.

Our awards typically range from $500 to $2500 US in each Fund. A few awards may be granted up to a $5000 award level.

Incomplete applications or those made to the wrong program will be automatically disqualified without notification or comment. Please read the application directions carefully.

All required documents must be submitted at one time, including your letter of support and current student ID or proof of enrollment. Required materials will not be accepted separately. If submitting your application electronically, please submit all required documents as one PDF or Microsoft Word File.
