The American Speech-Language-Hearing Foundation (ASHFoundation) supports innovators and encourages research that makes a difference in people's lives through speech, language, and hearing science. Inspired by pioneers like Dennis Klatt, the ASHFoundation aims to fuel advances in the field by backing new and ambitious projects that hold potential for significant impact.
The ASHFoundation's Graduate Student Scholarship program aims to support Communication Sciences and Disorders (CSD) graduate students who show promise and academic achievement. The scholarships cater to various categories, including general CSD graduate students, international students, minority students, National Student Speech Language Hearing Association (NSSLHA) members, and students with disabilities, emphasizing diversity and inclusivity within the CSD field. Each scholarship, especially the general graduate student scholarships, encourages applications from undergraduate seniors or those pursuing master's or doctoral degrees in communication sciences and disorders, offering up to 15 general graduate student scholarships of $5,000 each.
