This holiday season, with the simple act of drafting a letter of recommendation and a reminder to apply for TAPPI scholarships, you can showcase your appreciation for your intern or co-op student.
Each year, TAPPI is proud to offer multiple scholarship opportunities to graduate and undergraduate students in the pulp, paper, packaging and related industries. There are several Technical Division scholarships totaling more than $50,000 available for the 2022-2023 academic year. Applications are due February 15, 2022.
Students pursuing careers in the packaging industry are encouraged to apply for the International Flexible Packaging and Extrusion Division’s Daniel Siegel Memorial Scholarship, a $4,000 scholarship presented in even-numbered years to a TAPPI Student Chapter member enrolled in a packaging or related major. The scholarship is funded by an endowment from the MICA Corporation and the Siegel family.
TAPPI also offers the William L. Cullison Memorial Scholarship, a $4,000 scholarship for a junior or senior pursuing an academic path related to a career in the pulp, paper, corrugated and converting industries.
To access scholarship applications and division specific guidelines visit the TAPPI scholarship information page or contact the Awards Department at awards@tappi.org.
With your letter of recommendation, you will not only make your student feel appreciated but you can potentially positively affect their financial future, too.
