Through the Virginia Carter Smith Scholarship program, CASE grants about 20 scholarships each year to cover registration fees at selected CASE conferences.

Who Should Apply?

This program is for CASE members who have three or fewer years of advancement experience. Preference goes to professionals who are minorities and those who work at campuses with extremely limited resources. Scholarships are also available to those who have changed advancement disciplines (for example, moving from alumni relations to fundraising) in the last three years.
