Each year, through the Clair A. Hill Scholarship Program, the winner of the Clair A. Hill Agency Award for Excellence awards one scholarship to a qualified undergraduate student. The award is sponsored by Jacobs. Applicants must be attending an accredited public or private California college at the start of the academic year covered by the scholarship. They must be pursuing an undergraduate degree in a water resources-related field related to engineering, agricultural and/or urban water supply, environmental studies, or public administration at the start of the academic year covered by the scholarship. Applicants must submit at least two current letters of recommendation, but no more than three, with at least one of the letters originating from a college professor or employer on business letterhead; all letters of recommendation must include contact information for the writer. Scholarship recipients will be selected based on scholastic achievement; demonstrated motivation to the vocation of water resources-related management; the quality of the student's essay; and commitment to full-time enrollment for the entire academic year. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Association of California Water Agencies for more information.
