Populous, formerly HOK Sport Venue Event, offers a renewable scholarship to a Kansas City area high school senior whose economic circumstances would make pursuing a degree in architecture unlikely.

2010 applications will be available here, from the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation at
(816) 842-0944, and from area high school guidance counselors this fall.

Who is eligible:
Consideration for this scholarship is open exclusively to:

  • Graduating high school seniors with financial need
  • from Cass, Clay, Douglas, Jackson, Johnson (KS), Leavenworth, Platte, Ray and Wyandotte counties
  • who plan to pursue a degree in architecture at either Kansas State University (Manhattan campus) or the University of Kansas** (Lawrence campus)
  • To be eligible, students must have applied to, and been accepted into, the architecture program at one of those schools.
