Fund for Racial and Ethnic Diversity (FRED) Scholarship for Emerging Scholars

The Fund for Racial and Ethnic Diversity (FRED) Scholarship for Emerging Scholars supports undergraduate students from traditionally underrepresented communities of color with a demonstrated desire to pursue a graduate degree in psychology, specifically in clinical and/or research areas. The scholarship is sponsored by the American Psychological Foundation in partnership with the Minority Fellowship Program (MFP). This program aims to increase diversity in the field of psychology by supporting emerging scholars from underrepresented racial and ethnic backgrounds as they transition from undergraduate to graduate studies. Applicants must demonstrate a passion and desire to pursue psychology after completing their undergraduate program. The scholarship provides financial support to help offset educational expenses for students committed to advancing psychological science and practice.
