How many applications do I need to fill out? Just one application. The Scholarship Selection Committee determines how many scholarships each applicant is eligible for. If there are no qualified applicants for specific scholarships, those scholarships are not awarded.
Are AOTF scholarships renewable? No, scholarships are not renewable. However, recipients may apply next year if they are still enrolled in an accredited educational program.
When are scholarships awarded? The Scholarship Selection Committee reviews application materials, Program Director Statements, and Professional References in late winter. Scholarship winners will be announced in 2025.
When is the application deadline? If you submitted your application by midnight on Monday, September 30, you now have until October 7 to complete it. Program Director Statements and Professional References are due October 7.
Do I have to be a member of a state association to be awarded a scholarship? No. Membership in a state association is not required to receive an AOTF scholarship. However, to be awarded a state scholarship in some states, state occupational therapy association membership is required. Please check the specific requirements on Available Scholarships.
