AMA Foundation Collegiate Scholarships

Full-time undergraduate marketing students may apply through one form that routes to named AMA Foundation awards: Diversity Leadership, Robert DeLay Social Impact, EBSCO Student Scholar, Stryker Buoncristiano, and Lee Epstein. Most funds require AMA student membership and an active collegiate chapter; Stryker Buoncristiano and Lee Epstein do not require AMA membership. Minimum GPA ranges from 2.75 to 3.25 depending on the fund; Lee Epstein requires tri-state NY/NJ/CT residency.

Award amounts vary by fund and year; funds are sent to the winner's university for fall tuition with any remainder paid to the student. Recipients must maintain AMA membership during the scholarship period where applicable.

A single online application opens each September and was due January 14, 2026 for the 2026-27 cycle (closed when checked). Required materials include transcript, resume, and faculty advisor recommendation where applicable. Winners are announced at the AMA International Collegiate Conference.

The AMA Foundation is the philanthropic arm of the American Marketing Association, supporting student marketers who demonstrate leadership and community impact.
