  5. IMPORTANT UPDATE REGARDING 2026 SCHOLARSHIPS

After considerable thought and discussion, the Society is suspending Scholarship awards in all three regions – North America, Europe, and Australasia – for 2026.  In the interim, we encourage you to consider one of our amazing internships. The Internship program will continue as usual with the application period opening on December 1, 2025.

OWUSS is taking this time to review the mission and goals of the Society and determine the best path forward.  As we do so, we will seek enhanced engagement with our alumni, hosts, sponsors, and other interested parties.

For more information about the Our World-Underwater Scholarship Society, to make a much-appreciated donation, or to inquire about becoming a sponsor, please visit our website at www.owuscholarship.org, or email us at [email protected].
