American Go Foundation College Scholarship

American Go Foundation

The American Go Foundation has created a competitive merit scholarship program to recognize high school students who have served as important youth organizers and promoters for the Go community. Students whose enthusiasm and ambition spread Go in under-served areas have greatly helped the American Go community. To apply, download and complete the application form and describe your accomplishments and volunteer work in a short essay. Letters of recommendation may also be included. Applicants who have started clubs and promoted Go in areas where there is not a current, strong Go community will be given special consideration. Strong players who spend much of their time voluntarily teaching will also be considered, although the award is focused more on Go promoters and organizers who have substantially contributed during their Go career.
