Life Paths Promising Scholar Award

We are offering four full scholarships for presentations that focus on under-served or marginalized communities.  Full scholarships include conference registration and a $200 housing allowance for people who travel to Nashville from outside the area. We will pay full scholarship winners a $200 housing reimbursement after a submission of receipt from a hotel, AirBNB, or other forms of housing is received.

Eligibility is limited to current students (Undergraduate, Masters, and PhD students), post-baccalaureate fellows, and post-doctoral fellows.

Scholarship winners are expected to attend the entire conference. 

Please also submit your abstract to the conference submissions page. The following form is only to be considered for the award. People who wish to present should also submit their proposal through the conference submission portal.

Submitting a presentation or poster to ResilienceCon is a separate process. You should not wait to hear about submissions before applying for a scholarship.

Please fill out the following form to apply for the Life Paths Promising Scholar Award. 

Letter of Application: Please provide a 2-3 page letter that describes you, your current professional status, and how attendance at ResilienceCon will promote your professional goals. Additionally, please identify which marginalized or underserved community or communities that your work focuses on.

Submissions should be prepared and written by the applicant. Do not use artificial intelligence (AI) or third-parties to prepare your application.
