WTAAA Scholarship Guidelines

The scholarship competition is open to all TAAA members and family members. We have also included non-family members as long as they are sponsored by a TAAA member. The contest is also open to any allied industry member and family members. To qualify, dues must be paid by the organization or individual member on or before January 31, 2020.

Entrants must have or will be graduating from high school prior to the award date (May 30, 2020) and be enrolled in continuing education during the year of entry. It also includes any student/future student who will be enrolling in any collegiate institution, technical school or any higher educational course programs.

Deadline is April 30, 2020. Essays must be 1,500 words or less. Topic is “The Importance of Agricultural Aviation” Papers submitted will be judged on content, theme development, clarity, originality and proper grammar. All sources used must be citied. Plagiarism will result in immediate disqualification. Entries must be typewritten and double-spaced.
​
To ensure that the judges will not know the identities of the writers, keep any reference to the author’s name, sponsoring company and company location out of the essay itself. However, a title page should be attached with the entrant’s name, address and telephone number. All essays become property of the WTAAA. The judges’ decision is final. In the event the entries received lack outstanding merit, the WTAAA reserves the right not to award the scholarship(s).

Please send your manuscript (postmarked by April 30, 2020) to WTAAA Scholarship Chairman:
