Funds awarded August/September

THE AWARD
Polish American Engineers Association of Florida Inc.’s mission is to help students pursue their education within the STEM – science, technology, engineering and math by awarding financial aid to deserving university students.  (1).

PAEA supports American students of Polish descent for undergraduate and graduate level studies at colleges and universities with a special consideration given to students from our local community attending Florida universities.  Scholarships are awarded on a competitive basis for one academic year. Funding is for full-time studies.  Selected applicants are awarded financial assistance which is disbursed to the student’s university account.  Scholarship funds can only be used to pay for tuition, fees, books, supplies or equipment required for courses at the educational institution. (see IRS guidelines).

The principal source of our scholarship fund, in addition to member dues, originates from fundraising events and donations and there is no guarantee that funds will be available in the future.   

Please read the instructions carefully.
