Scholarships

Each year, WMPF awards a scholarship to an undergraduate or graduate student pursuing a degree in planning or a closely-related field, such as landscape architecture, architecture and public administration.  Applicants are required to demonstrate an interest in and understanding of planning issues affecting older suburban communities.  Preference is given to those students with some type of connection to Westchester County, such as having lived, worked or studied in the county.  The scholarship is awarded at WMPF’s annual spring awards dinner. 

This scholarship for $2,000 is available to an undergraduate or graduate planning student (or a student in a closely-related field such as public administration, public policy, geography, architecture or landscape architecture) with a demonstrated interest in planning issues affecting older suburban communities. Preference will be given to those students who have lived, worked or studied in Westchester County, New York or have some other relevant connection to the County. The scholarship is available only to those students who will be continuing their studies in the summer and or fall semesters of 2013. If you have any questions, please email Margaret Uhle at muhle@eastchester.org.

The scholarship will be presented to the recipient at WMPF’s Annual Planning Awards Dinner at the The Lodge at Hudson Harbor in Tarrytown on Thursday, June 6, 2013.
