We welcome nominees from a wide range of institutions, from community colleges to research-intensive universities. Candidates must be college sophomores or juniors, U.S. citizens or permanent residents, and should intend to pursue research careers in science, engineering, or mathematics. We encourage transfer students and veterans to reach out to their campus representatives for guidance.

Students interested in being nominated for the scholarship should consult with their Goldwater Campus Representative as early in the nomination cycle as possible. Contact information for Campus Representatives can be found through the Campus Representative Locator at the top of this web page.

We will hold weekly Open Houses for Campus Representatives every Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

By providing scholarships to college sophomores and juniors who intend to pursue research careers in the natural sciences, mathematics and engineering, the Goldwater Foundation is helping ensure that the U.S. is producing the number of highly-qualified professionals the Nation needs in these critical fields. Over its 30-year history, Goldwater Scholarships have been awarded to thousands of undergraduates, many of whom have gone on to win other prestigious awards like the National Science Foundation’s Graduate Fellowship, Rhodes Scholarship, Churchill Scholarship and the National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowship that support our Scholars’ graduate school work. Today, Goldwater alumni can be found conducting research that is helping defend the Nation, finding cures for catastrophic diseases and teaching future generations of scientists, mathematicians and engineers.
