ASLA Council of Fellows Scholarships

About this scholarship

The ASLA Council of Fellows Scholarships support landscape architecture students facing financial barriers to completing professional degree programmes. The official ASLA Council of Fellows page states that the Council presents four scholarships each year and that the scholarships are administered by the Landscape Architecture Foundation. The programme was founded to aid outstanding students with unmet financial need, increase participation by economically disadvantaged and underrepresented populations, and enrich landscape architecture through a more diverse professional community. LAF's awards page and 2026 eligibility information list ASLA Council of Fellows Scholarships at $5,000 to $10,000, plus ASLA Conference registration and a travel stipend. The award is partial funding because it is a fixed scholarship and professional-development benefit rather than full tuition, housing, studio supplies, or personal expenses. Eligible candidates apply through LAF's student scholarship process and must meet the specific professional-degree, school-location, and additional requirements in the current LAF eligibility table.
