#EQxD2020 – Architect Registration Examination (ARE) Challenge Scholarship Program
The ARE Challenge Scholarship Program recognizes that the effort and expense of the architectural licensing process as a barrier to achieving this professional milestone and disproportionately affects candidates of historically underrepresented identities in the profession. In light of the extremely challenging and economically unstable conditions that we are collectively facing, AIASF Equity by Design has established financial assistance scholarships for licensure candidates who are eligible to take the ARE exams.
Selected Recipients of the #EQxD2020 ARE Challenge Scholarship will be reimbursed for three (3) ARE Exams (Value $705 per recipient), regardless of pass or fail status. Recipients will also receive six (6) complimentary registrations to AIASF ARE prep classes.
We are also seeking AEC co-sponsorship of this program to fund additional ARE Challenge Scholarship recipients; contact [email protected] to learn more.
Eligibility:
- Applicants must be currently eligible to take the ARE Exams for Architectural Licensure.
- Candidates must be currently authorized to work in the United States.
- Applicants are strongly encouraged to participate in the #EQxD2020 series.
AIASF’s Equity by Design initiative is a call to action to realize the goal of equitable practice for everyone, advance the profession and communicate the value of architecture to society. Our mission is to understand the pinch points of career progression and promote the strategic execution of best practices in the recruitment, retention, and promotion of our profession’s best talent at every level of architectural practice.
