National Peace Corps Association (NPCA)

The National Peace Corps Association (NPCA) Scholarship provides returned Peace Corps volunteers (RPCVs) a 25% tuition discount and application fee waiver for any of our master’s degree programs. This award honors the longstanding connection between SIT and the Peace Corps. SIT has supported the Peace Corps community since its inception in the 1960’s, training some of the first volunteers as they prepared for their overseas service. Today, we remain committed to this partnership.

To qualify, applicants must:

  • Be a member of the National Peace Corps Association (NPCA) with at least one year of significant Peace Corps experience.
  • Be accepted into one of SIT’s master’s degree programs.
