The deadline for The TEAM-UP Together Scholarship Program has been extended to 7 April 2023. 

The TEAM-UP Together Scholarship Program is underway and will continue to accept applications for its next round of need-based scholarships until 7 April 2023. The scholarship program is one of TEAM-UP Together’s strategies aimed at doubling the number of African Americans earning bachelor’s degrees in physics and astronomy by 2030. The awards of $10,000 per academic year are to be used for tuition, fees, or supplies.

In December 2022, the TEAM-UP Together Scholarship Program selected its first cohort of 31 scholars. The application for the next round opened in November 2022, closes on 7 April 2023, and will culminate in another cohort of scholars announced this summer.
