Vincent C. Scavo Grants
In 1995, the Board of Directors, voted to re-name the grants offered to members to
honor the memory of Vince Scavo, one of our founders and a past President of IAAE.
Each year IAAE offers grants to members who wish to provide innovative programs for
the students with whom they work. The IAAE Awards Committee will determine the
number of grants awarded and the amount per award. No more than $750 will be
awarded to any one school or program. Grants have a project period of one calendar
year. Recipients are required to document expenses and evaluate the project's success,
including submission of an article suitable for publication. The article must be
submitted within one year of the award date.
Grant applications are to include a narrative about the proposal and a budget
breakdown is required.
In the narrative submitted, please include the details listed below. Grants are judged
using the following criteria:
 Involvement of students
 Interdisciplinary
 Experientially based
 Potential of expending students' horizons
 Innovative
 Use of community
