The award is applied directly to college expenses.
With this in mind, students who are studying in the fields of botany, biology, zoology, natural history and other related fields such as wildlife management, interpretation, conservation, and environmental education are encouraged to apply
To be eligible for the scholarship, the student must have been a resident of Hawaii within the past 5 years, been accepted or enrolled full time at a four-year college, and maintained a GPA of 3.0 or better.
