Description
The Barabara A. Cooley Master’s Scholarship is awarded annually by SHAPE America to support graduate study in health education. It is intended for an individual master’s-level student currently enrolled in a school-based health education program at an accredited college or university in the United States or a U.S. territory.
The scholarship provides financial support for the student rather than funding a defined research study or project. Recipients may spend the award in any manner they desire and also receive a complimentary year of SHAPE America student membership. SHAPE America — Society of Health and Physical Educators — is the national professional association for health and physical education professionals in the United States.
