Stone Lab Scholarships


2026 Applications now open
 

Each year, Stone Lab awards scholarships to students with financial need. Anyone taking a for-credit class (and some workshops) is eligible to apply.

How Can I Apply?

WHEN DO I SUBMIT?: View deadlines below!

High School, Undergraduate, and graduate students:

Individuals completing these forms should be non-relatives who can speak to your academic success and work ethic (examples may include a teacher, guidance counselor, etc.) Recommendation forms should include the author’s business email.

All high school students (whether or not they apply for a scholarship) must submit a completed recommendation form.

Students applying for both a scholarship and the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Fellowship Program need only submit one set of transcripts and recommendations.

Educators:

TIP: Address why you think the Stone Lab experience will impact your academic and career aspirations, to highlight your qualifications and to discuss your financial need.
