David Pennington Marine Fisheries Scholarship

Distributions from the Fund will be used to provide scholarships for students pursuing an undergraduate degree in Fisheries, Wildlife and Conservation Biology.

Preference will be given as follows:
a) First preference will be given to students who are pursuing a concentration in Fisheries Science.
b) Second preference will be given to students who are spending a full academic semester at NC State’s Center for Marine Sciences and Technology (CMAST).

The Donor’s preference is to provide one or two awards each academic year, but the number of awards may be adjusted by the Foundation to maximize the Fund’s benefit to the university and students.
Awards will be determined by the FER Scholarship Committee in accordance with the established procedures for awarding scholarships.
Awards will be for one academic year and will not be renewable.
