May is Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month, which means it’s the perfect time to honor and celebrate students who are also Asian and Pacific Islanders within the United States!
Throughout the month, the nation hosts a celebration of Asians and Pacific Islanders in the United States. Why May? According to the government's Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month site, "the month of May was chosen to commemorate the immigration of the first Japanese to the United States on May 7, 1843, and to mark the anniversary of the completion of the transcontinental railroad on May 10, 1869. The majority of the workers who laid the tracks were Chinese immigrants."
What began as a week-long celebration in the 1970s, the honor was extended to a month under President George H.W. Bush. May became the official designation of Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month after President Bush signed it into law in 1992.
In honor of Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month, Fastweb is celebrating students with Asian-Pacific heritage with the following list of scholarships, all of which celebrate the value of a student’s diverse background.
To help better organize your scholarship and internship search, please note that the following scholarships for Asian Pacific American students are listed according to deadline, with the earliest deadline appearing at the top of the page. Deadlines that vary will appear at the bottom of each list.
