Scholarship Programs

The American Society for Enology and Viticulture annually awards numerous scholarships to students pursuing a degree in enology, viticulture, or in a curriculum emphasizing a science basic to the wine and grape industry.

We are now offering the following two scholarship programs:

1. ASEV Traditional Scholarship – The scholarship awards for our traditional program are not in predetermined amounts. The amounts will vary from year to year depending on the number of qualified applicants.
   
   Within the Traditional Scholarship program, we offer a James Wolpert Scholarship Award for those who express an intent to work in the field of viticulture or enology extension. If you wish to be considered for this award, please include pertinent information in your letter of intent that must be submitted with this application.
